I own one of each and listen to them almost every day, along with an Oppo HA-1. I’ve reviewed each of them separately. This is a quick comparison of the Corda Jazz with the JDS Element. Since they cost the same, both offer excellent sound for the money, and people frequently ask about them, I thought my observations might be of general interest.
TL;DR Summary: If all you need is a pure analog headphone amp, get the Corda Jazz. If you want the flexibility of having a DAC and analog RCA inputs and outputs too (even if you won’t always use them), get the JDS Element.
