Review: Jolida JD-1501 Tube amp
this is a great amp, and with the level 1 upgrade done at Jolida for 200 it sounds amazingly clear and detailed. Nice. I sell Jolida and this is the amp I use at home. The 102CRC is one of my favorites too. have a modified 301A that would amaze an... 
Integrated tube amp has no bass Cayin A50T

Great Rock & Roll speakers?
a more sensitive speaker is going to sound better at lower listening levels. and will play loud if you want. la scalas are the best speaker I ever heard. and you could drive those easily with a 30 to 45wpc amp. and normal listening volumes would t...

Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ?
i have had nice jolida pieces too. loved a jd202, but had some minor problems. tube gear can be problematic no matter the brand. that is why so many years ago solid state was higher, and thought to be a wonderful advancement. i got a dealership wi...
