I have the Jolida JD-502P amp and I really enjoy it. I've used KEF Q300 speakers with it primarily. I've used 6550, KT88 and even KT 120 power tubes with it. Preamp tube wise I've used all sorts of 12AX7 and 5751 type tubes. The 12AT7 tubes I've used with it are the Mullard CV4024 tubes or GE JAN 12AT7 tubes. You can easily tailor the sound to your liking with this amp. It is very responsive to tube rolling.
I would say the only speaker IME that it didn't power well were Ohm Walsh Short speakers.
Be sure to check the A'gon archives for more thoughts on the Jolida 502 amp and various integrateds. I believe there is also the Jolida JD-502B in addition to the 502CRC.
