Thank you for purchasing the JAS Audio Bravo 2.3 Integrated Amplifier. Standing on the
chassis immediate in front of the transformer casing are two 5AR4 rectifier tubes. On either
ends of the front row are 6C33 drive stage tubes separated by two 6J4P input stage tubes in
the middle. The transformer cage and the tube platform on the chassis are both overlaid with
hand finished solid wooden board engraved with scripts of Bravo and a thick acyclic sheet
engraved with tube notations and other indications respectively. The decorations and
indications are intended to put an appearance of stylish and elegance in front of audience.
Made of aluminum alloy, the front panel of 8mm in thickness is also a representation of

It is important to be careful with tube installation. Please do not force
anything, easy does it! This precaution is mentioned to help you
obtain pleasing results and avoid damage! If you have any trouble
replacing or changing tubes, please don’t hesitate to call your dealer!
Tube Replacement
Caution: Make sure the amplifier has been unplugged for 30 minutes from the AC
mains before replacing the tubes. This is to avoid any risk of shock or discomfort from
high temperature. Although tube life span varies depending on the nature and degree of
use, the 6C33 output tubes and the 6J4P driver tubes should last years in the Bravo 2.3
under normal home use.
