Jolida, to modify or not...


I have finally decided on the JD-100. I have read many of the posts here as well as reviews of the unit. I'm wondering if anyone has done a comparison between the Jolida with upgraded tubes and the parts connextion modified unit? Is there really a big difference? With all the raves here, I'm wondering just what the modification can add verses upgrading the tubes and powercord? And, does the mod take any of the sweetness away?

Appreciate any thoughts.

I just installed NOS Jan Phillips 12AX7WA's and darn
if it did not make it sound a heck of a lot better. IMO
this CPD is way to cheap shhhh!, considering some of the
other cdp's I have owned in the past. Better not
say here though which ones. :^)
I cannot tell you if the "totally" modded version is much
better than that, as I have not heard it, but I would
say I agree with Muralman1 above on where I would spend
the extra $$$.
Put a good set of tubes in it and feel like your ahead
of the game. GREAT CDP!
