Digital-to-analog conversion in Jadis JS5 uses an eight-channel 32-bit Sabre ES9038PRO chip from ESS Technology with Hyperstream technology, and tube-based (2xECC82, 2xECC88, 1xEL84 and 1xEF86) output stage. The commutation arsenal of the new product includes four digital inputs, and the analog music signal is output both through an unbalanced output on RCA connectors and through a balanced one on XLR.
