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.
