The JC 2 BP is a home theater bypass that enables seamless blending into a digital surround system.  The JC 2 BP allows one to bypass the master volume control, and let the left and right channel gain controls. Fixed resistors set the signal level at its output jacks for “unity gain.” This means the signal level at the JC 2 BP output jacks is exactly the same as the signal level at its input jacks so you won’t need to re-calibrate the speaker levels in your surround system. The adaptability of the JC 2 BP bypass function also let you operate with both its unbalanced and its balanced inputs and outputs.

• Unparalleled circuit design and topology:   The JC 2 BP model is unparalleled as it uses the exact same circuit design and topology of the JC2 pre-amplifier, meaning that it has only the best quality of components internally to ensure the purest of reproduction. 
• Superd connectivity and integration features:  The JC2 BP has six pairs unbalanced RCA line-level audio input jacks - plus two input pairs can be switched to XLR balanced connectors, four 12v trigger output jacks feature for power amp auto turn-on, and the unit also boasts a  great higher end integration feature - a dedicated two-way RS-232 serial port connection.
• Bridging the multi-channel and two channel divide:  The JC2 BP is the best option for any dedicated project that wants to bridge the multi-channel and two channel divide, without compromising sonic performance.
• Seamless transition between analogue stereo and digital surround:  When you want to watch movies with digital surround, you can simply toggle the appropriate command  and the left and right front channel signals from your surround processor or receiver will pass through the JC 2 BP as if it wasn’t even there. The JC2 BP enables anyone to enjoy the best of both worlds with perfect analogue stereo and a seamless transition to digital surround.
