Anybody know the Descartes amp?

Saw a ad for a Descartes amp with the number JC-96B. Beefy looking piece of gear. In addition the spkr posts had the name Auditor on them. Don't know if these were after market posts that the company used. Any help would be appreciated. Enjoy the music!

Descartes is famous for his quote: "I think, therefore I am."

One day he was ordering a sandwich and the waitress asked, "Do you want pickles with that."

Descartes replied, "I think not" and disappeared.

A true Descarte amp is by definition unknowable. Go with the Cogito.

Thanks all for the replies. I assume based on the posts this amp has no history to speak of.

I've never heard of it but at least we're keeping the thread alive until someone comes along with a respectable answer.

Good luck in your quest.

Don't know nothing about Descarte amp but I like Pascal amps better with the beaufiful engraves on the face-plate :" Le coeur a des raisons que la raison ne connait pas"
