Tapco J-2500, J-800, J1400 Introduction

Introduction

Thank you for choosing a TAPCO® Juice™ power ampliﬁer. The TAPCO product line hails back to the

days of TAPCO Corporation, Greg Mackie’s ﬁrst company. TAPCO revolutionized the audio industry in

1969 with the very ﬁrst 6-channel mixer speciﬁcally designed for keyboards and rock ‘N’ roll PA.

In essence, TAPCO re-deﬁned the price performance ratio and made high-quality professional audio

mixers accessible to virtually anyone. Today, TAPCO is reborn with the same ideals and is backed by

the world-class engineering and manufacturing horsepower of Mackie. The TAPCO J•800, J•1400, and

J•2500 are the ﬁrst power ampliﬁers in the TAPCO family.

The Juice Series™ of ampliﬁers are powerful and tough. They are designed to withstand the punishing

rigors of the road and continue to crank out ampliﬁed sound day after day, year after year.
