Just sold my Tube Audio Design Hibachi Mono Block Amplifiers. A tube like solid state design and purchased a Jolida JD-502p.Oh my God I absolutely love the sound. I haven't listened to so much music in a long time.If you are on the fence about tubes just do it this amp is so easy to use and sounds lovely.Moving in the direction of hi efficiency speakers and low power amps.Sounding very good more natural.
Purchased on Craigslist $600 2Xperience was developed from the now legendary Pro-Ject 2. This balanced and low-resonance design is a perfect combination of sandwich construction, acrylic chassis, MDF platter with vinyl mat and the Pro-Ject 9cc top class tone-arm made from carbon fibre. Decoupled motor and conical feet with Sorbothane® inlay are approved Pro-Ject features to eliminate unwanted vibrations.
