Jolida 1501 RC

I am sure if you search the forums / internet you are bound to find something.

I've had one in our great room for the last 4 years that the family uses for movies and occasional music. No problems, non fatiguing, warm, but not very resolving. Overall, a good product at it's price point... and I'd choose it over a Rotel product of a similar price.

i would choose the jolida over the rotel or NAD. i have listened to the 1501 but have multiple jolida 1301's and a 1701 that i think are better than the 1501. the 1701 has a remote, the 1301's don't.

Bob, did you roll tubes on the 1501RC? I read your comments in other threads and can tell that you're not a fan. I am seriously considering this amp for a 3rd system with Energy RC-50s for movies and some music with a Velodyne servo sub.

rnstehno, interesting that you prefer the 1301 to the 1501 since they seem like they're cut from the same cloth with the 1501 being much more powerful.

I recently purchased a 1501D with tube rectification, from jolida.net

The tubes and the signal caps in this amp were pure hell listen to (i.e. harsh and fatiguing). After a pair of Mullards and V-Caps, the 1501D is a pleasure to spend time with.
