JOLIDA SJ-502A integrated valve amp
using 6550 valves and MULLARD ECC 81's
, boxed, £625

"I chose the Jolida 502a last year after my 10-year-old solid state amp bit the dust. Having listened to this amp for a year, I won't be going back to solid state. No matter if it's Stravinsky, Vivaldi, The Magnetic Fields, or Dire Straits, the sound is WONDERFUL. By now, we all seem to know that, so here's what I've done: Everyone says dump the cheap valves. They are right. After some rolling, I've wound-up with Sovtek 6550's, Mullard 12au7's and Telefunken 12ax7's. The first difference I noticed after adding the Mullards to these power tubes was a fuller, broader, much less compressed sound through my 89db Viva's. As my fiancee noted, it didn't sound like it was playing in a bathroom anymore (I didn't agree with her before...) When I added the Tele's, I instantly noticed much nicer imaging from the front of the room. The separation of vocals from guitar from Where the Streets have no Name extended far wider than they ever did with the old solid state. Living in a condo, I don't often push the bottom end (this amp is MUCH sweeter at low listening levels than solid state listeners are accustomed to) but when I crank the subwoofer, bass percussion knocks plaster off the walls, with help from good Telarc classical recordings. I have been so impressed that well-recorded music can sound so good. For a balance of tonal clarity, uncolored sound, and wonderful imaging-- along with strong, precise bass-- especially for this price, the Jolida matched with good tubes is sweet music."
