Started with a 502B, and went to VTL MB 300 monos with a Manley Reference Linestage. Obviously the VTL's have much more speaker control and dynamics, but my 502B was pretty heavily modded, so at lower volumes they were much closer. The bigger improvement was going from box speakers to Magnepans. And lately, there was an incredible new level reached with the addition of a Stello CD-5 CDP. Its amazing what a good DAC and Clock section do.
Former Jolida Owners - What did you upgrade to?
I have owned a 202a for the past year and a half, and like many Jolida owners it was my first tube amp. I still like it very much, but wondering what people who have owned Jolida tube integrated amps upgraded to.
