Have you heard the Acoustic Reality digital amps?
Any more info anyone? 
CD Players $1,000 - $1,500 US - any info on Talk?
The Jolida 100 has many faces. With the right tubes, it is awesome. See the 100+ message Jolida thread for details. 
Jolida JD100. How good is it?
Kck, I've had Jolidas for so long, I forgot about that bonus. Thanks for bringing it up. I had a Sony ES before I switched, and it was night and day.

Well, I have Scintillas powered by X600. These will give impact down to 20Hz. The mids are incomparable except for Quads. The highs are perfect beyond hearing. They produce the music as was recorded. When the recording is first rate, the Scintilla...

The RCA 12AU7 clear tops are readily available from numerous sources. The Sylvania, as plentiful as Sovteks five years ago, are nearly vanished, the demand is so high. The source I have used has only a few left, and, heartless as it may seem, I ha...
