The Kinoshita-JMF HQS2500UPM is a stereo professional power amplifier co-developed by Rey Audio of Japan and JMF Audio of France. It was conceived primarily for editing-room/studio monitor loudspeakers, while also being positioned by Rey Audio for high-end domestic music systems. The design emphasizes instantaneous current delivery, low noise, stable operation, simple circuitry with selected components, passive cooling, and comprehensive loudspeaker/protection monitoring. Rey Audio’s current product information continues to list the HQS2500UPM in the HQS amplifier series, so it should not be treated as discontinued.
