| Jolida JD100. How good is it? Mijknarf, Distortion has taught me there is no "best" tube. It's all system dependant. For my system, it is black plates or nothing.Unless... How in the world did you come by Sylvania Grey plate gold pin tubes? That's a good find. You really can't... | |
| Jolida JD100. How good is it? yup :-D | |
| Open-Minded or Gullible? This is the funniest thread I've ever read. | |
| Jolida JD100. How good is it? If you are buying the unit from Bill Baker, you better give the Jolida a month's use before calling him or he will bite your head off. I know; having the half a brain he left me with is why I stay in this hobby. ;) | |
| Jolida JD100. How good is it? You are welcome, Rkt. May I be so bold as to suggest a future speaker upgrade where you will not have to sacrifice even your second born? Have you ever heard of Apogee? There are some Stage speakers with stands selling for 1k now here. Talking abo... | |
| Jolida JD100. How good is it? RKT008, the Jolida is a marvelout 1k player. Your amp is good. I don't know about the pre, haven't heard it. I do like line stages on most. Speakers?Break in the RCA/Jolida for an extended time, before making a decision.For non offending resolving... | |
| Jolida JD100. How good is it? Distortion, I was talking about you behind your back. Shame on me. You bring up an important point. Tube rolling will be important with the Jolida. I can see how Distortion's system benefits from the EH tubes. | |
| Jolida JD100. How good is it? Gee, this is an old thread. I had to read what I had told you first. I still have mine. I've never used The RCA 5751 triple mica. My favorite is the Sylvania, but they are becoming near impossible to find, and are pushing $100. I think I know wher... | |
| Open-Minded or Gullible? Neat question. The fuse thing might be true. I don't know what you are talking about. As for all the rest - granite break in/cable break in are totally illogical and unmeasurable... However, that does not exclude those that ... feel... the differe... | |
| Pass X250, Classe CAM200 or... How does an amp not sound musical? I just don't understand that popular term. Dry? as opposed to wet, I suppose? This is what I get from the Pass amps I have owned. An amp that gets out of the way of the music. The music is generated by the front ... | |
| Which basic amps can drive 1 ohm loads ? Sean, that was a relief. I knew I was familiar with your name. The JC-1 is a great amp, so I heard.Having the X600, I don't have to do math (luckily). I just follow the needle. At <1 ohm, I need to go to live levels to swing the needle into AB.... | |
| Which basic amps can drive 1 ohm loads ? Rit, why are you so adamant? Are you a dealer? Seadog is doing this as a favor for a friend. I dare say he has already made his recommendation. I own Scintillas. I know others across the world that own Scintillas. My word is backed up by real worl... | |
| Upgrade Path: CDP or Preamp Tobias is right about the pre amp. It needs to go too. However, the tubed Jolida will do wonders with your overall sound. And it may be the last cdp you will need to buy. Because it works it's magic with tubes, you needn't rush out to get an old t... | |
| Upgrade Path: CDP or Preamp Your cd player is your weakest link. Buy a stock jolida 100 for $900 new, saving the last hundred for tubes that will perfect your front end. You can write me for where to get the tubes. | |
| Which basic amps can drive 1 ohm loads ? Ritteri, I am not arguing about whether the Palladium has the current to run <1 ohm. I just would not put my money on them surviving high dynamic peak fluctuations. There are very few <1 ohm speakers out there. I own one of them. My X600 mon... |
