The amplifier belongs to the group of devices produced in such a small number of copies that it's creator is hardly called a manufacturer. The amplifier does not have any notes or signs and to find information about the person who built it is almost impossible. It turns out that it is the product of (a term a bit exaggerated) manufacturer named ARG. The ARG "company" it is probably one person, Mr. Eugene Kremiński from Lviv. I have not found any corporate website or the official list of ARG products. The only source of information are online "notes" of a few users, or friends of the amplifier's builder. I decided to put the amplifier in the gallery because of its quite unique schematic configuration. It is a circlotron

The only problem is the inability to take a picture in a way that surrounding objects are not reflected in the golden housing. It is presumed that one of the purposes underlying the company was to promote electron tubes produced by them (the preamplifier has as many as 8 tubes). This has been only partially successfull. Preamplifier certainly served the brand, but rather as an independent audio device, than the device equipped with tubes with JJ logo. In some copies, which I inspected I found tubes from other manufacturers.
