Good points Deborahl and Plsl! Deb, what tubes did you prefer in the Jolida? I found Svetlana good for smoothness, the JJ(Tesla/Teslovak) for overall balanced performance, and Ei for guts. I also think KT88 tubes are a big step up from 6550s, in these amps. Also, have you heard one modified for triode operation? I'm curious to hear one, despite the 50% drop in power. Didn't buy a Jolida myself(I bought a more expensive amp), but I have promised myself a Jolida in a second system one day. Have gotten many of my friends to buy Jolida, and often wonder if it's REALLY worth it to spend more. An upgraded Jolida is VERY close to many more expensive products.
Integrated amp decision, oh the headache
Want to buy integrated amp for music listening only. Have Klipsch reference 3 mains and M+K V125 sub, limited budget of $500. What is the best int. i can get for that price? Heard the NAD C-340 was an excellant amp, would that be a good one to get? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
