Anyone know what amp this is?

I'm new to this stuff, but I saw this amp in a Dwell.com slideshow and am pretty blown away. I'd love to get something like this. Anyone know what kind of amp this is?

Also, in building a basic system, do I need to be looking for a preamp and power amp? Or can I take something like this:

and drive a line-level input into some speakers?

Any ideas what the speakers are?
Jim Rogers JR149's, British, similar to the LS3/5a except for the cabinet.

Note: I believe the reference is incorrect in spelling the name as "rodgers"; it should be spelled "rogers."

If you buy a Jolida 102B, get the latest model, no more than 2 years old. Current models have upgraded capacitors, wiring, and hexfred diodes. Also, make sure you're not buying from jolida.net. By the way, I'm driving relatively inefficient Totem monitors with my 102B to great effect.
