Jolida 502A - Other owners, what speakers?


Got a Jolida 502A on the way and I need to get some speakers. What is everyone else with this amp using for speakers? I realize that my music taste, source and room layout will factor in but, if possible, I'd like a short list of what I should audition. Will probably be paired with a Pioneer DV-05 for now until I can get a Rega Planet Orig/2000. Thanks.

Thanks for the kind words Cleaneduphippy.

I have several customers running the Jolida / Usher combination with most combinations using the Usher 718 or 719. This is an exceptional match according to the feedback.

A few are running with the Usher 6-series as well and having no problems. I have a few owners of the modified Jolida units or 3205 units wanting to try out the new BE-718 due to be released soon. I will be eager to hear their comments.
Cleaneduphippy, While the AR.com speakers are nice, I think you are in for a real treat should you decide to move onto the Usher line. Any of their X-Series or 6-Series would be a very good match. Let us know what you decide and happy listening!
".....btw, Bill, I was under the impression that you had dropped the Usher line....."

Yes, I did let the line go. I would not be recommending them if I still had them as this would be considered promoting business and against the rules.

Even though I am no longer a dealer, I have no problem recommending these speakers and supporting those who are looking to buy.

For the record, the only reason I let the Usher line go was due to a lack of retail sales in my area. It had nothing to do with the line itself. (In fact, I wish I could still sell the modified version of the S-520. An amazing speaker).

With so many Usher dealers, it was a hard product for me to sell without invading another dealer's area. I do not do much in regard to retail sales with 95% of my business being our exclusive products and modifications.
