I owned one of those, very nice integrated. It also had a host of problems that creeped up as it was used that had to be repaired by Jolida. I wouldn't buy one again.....but I did anyways :)

Looks like a really nice amp!

What kind of problems did yours have?

[dorokusai]

I had bias issues, a bad input selector, left channel dropout and some other small resistor issues. It was finally fixed but I sold it and bought an level 1 modified version from Parts Connexion. THAT was a golden piece of gear.

Luckily Jolida is about 300 yards from my office.

I can't stand the way they look. They look like a microwave full of tubes.
Nice price though. I've got a lot more than that in my 302.:rolleyes:

It's beautiful in person and more dynamic than the SJ302, even if it does look like a microwave.

Thats why I was rolling my eyes. All the money I have in mine then something like this pops up. I am still VERY happy with what I have. It and the Jolida CDP are the two best pieces of gear I have ever owned.

Don't sweat it Nik....you have two great pieces if gear.
