Jadis Aria and Jadis Óde
Jadis adds Aria and Óde integrated amps for North America
The two tube integrated amplifiers sit below larger Jadis models and are now available through authorized dealers in the United States and Canada. The launch gives the French brand a new North American entry point without moving outside its valve-amplifier focus.

Bluebird Music has announced immediate North American availability for the Jadis Aria and Jadis Óde integrated amplifiers. The two models expand the French tube-amplifier brand’s range for the United States and Canada through authorized Jadis dealers.
The Aria builds on the long-standing Orchestra Reference with a fully tube-based input stage in place of the earlier hybrid transistor-and-tube design. It is positioned as the lower-priced of the two new integrated amplifiers and keeps the brand’s focus on valve amplification and in-house transformer production.
The Óde is positioned above the Aria and follows a more purist tube-amplifier brief. Both amplifiers use Jadis proprietary transformers designed, wound and built in-house by Jadis.
