Jolida JD-402 Tube Tuners


Does anyone have any experience with these? I want to buy one, but would like some feedback first?

Thanks,

I have to say I'm impressed by the sound of this unit. I haven't completed a full critical review yet, but it's certainly a bargain at its price range. I ordered from Underwood Hi-Fi on the internet, off Audiogon actually. This has left me with some questions with regard to the units display function which Walter was unable to answer, and which was not mentioned at all in the manual. The manual which is in the range of, I'd say, a taiwanese manufactured product, which I guess this is. Sonically though, I'm more than satisfied. Now, if I can ever get through to Jolida to have them answer my questions about the display functions that, as I said, aren't mentioned in the manual, I'd be happy.
Oh yeah, the reception seems pretty good too.

I just recived one from Underwood Hi-Fi with the Level-2 mod done by Part Connection. The reception is great and I am not using anythang but the wire antennas that came with it.The sound,well the Bass is fast & deep as the hi's are crisp & distinct, the sound is not muddy at all but full and rich more like a SACD and quiet when there is stillness over the air wave.Also it is not a light weight but built to last. I have to say I am quite satisfied with it and plan to do a little tube rolling (of course).
Have you figured out yet how to get the unit to display the call letters of the station after you've programmed them?
The display button on my remote is not mentioned in the manual, and in fact does nothing when pressed. I'm waiting for a call back from Jolida on this question, but I thought you may have figured it out. Walt didn't have a clue on this.

Just an update, in case anyone's following this thread, or reads it and happens to have any information.

I finally talked to Mike Alan, owner of Jolida today. He said he "had no idea" how to get the tuner to display the programmed call letters.
He said "it's the chips now days."

I am able to get the call letters input with the station numbers, folowing the directions in the manual, but I am unable to ever have them appear on the display after that. I also noticed my remote has no "S".
Anyway, he said he'd get back to me in a couple of weeks. When he does, I'll post again.
If anyone else has this figured out, please let me know.
