Prima Luna ProLouge 7 or Jolida JD-1000P


I'm looking for a budget friendly tube amp to go with a pair of Von Schweikert VR-33 speakers. My room is 20L x 13W x 9H and I listen mostly to Jazz. The amps I am considering are the Prima Luna ProLouge 7 and the Jolida JD-1000P. I don't know much about either amp but have heard great things. Anyone have any experience with either amps? I would like to stay under 3K.

I don't know the Jolida, but can highly recommend Prima Luna. Excellent sound and build quality at reasonable cost. I will offer a couple of observations:

The PLs are auto-biasing. If you intend to tube roll, this is a great benefit.

Not sure how you settled on the PL7s (I own a pair), but the PL6s and PL7s are both worth considering, depending on your taste and the particular application. Kevin Deal at Upscale Audio in Cal. (who imports the line) is a great resource when making that decision. You might want to call him before pulling the trigger on any of these amps.
