Art Audio Jota VS Audio Note Conquest


Friends, I am in a situation where one of these could be mine. Both are similarly priced, specs are also similar. Both are Parallel Single ended 300B power amps with 18 watts per channel output. Has anyone heard both ? Or at least has anyone heard similar amps from both these brands ? How do they differ in their presentation ? Any input would greatly helpful in choosing between them.

My taste is more towards honest and truthful presentation rather than being rosy. But I want to keep to tubes, no SS.

I cannot speak on the merits of neither amplifier, but, please keep in mind that self- proclaimed owner of Art Audio Joe Fratus is a con artist and a thief.
I have $6000 deficit on my bank account to testify to that.
Sent it to him for the new Art Audio PX25 amplifier 3 years ago and still waiting.
And so you know, Art Audio is British company and is NOT represented in the US by Joe Fratus.
French fries- the only "passion and commitment" from Art Audio folks that I have noticed in my dealings, is the commitment to cheat their customers out of their money.
Pani,
even if you buy pre-owned, you should consider non-existent customer support. I know people who sent him equipment for repairs and had never gotten it back- that's what I call customer service!
Pani,
You dealing with Art Audio UK changes everything. I have no comments about them whatsoever
