Jolida JD100. How good is it?

Thanks for the responses. Sounds like a consensus on the jolida. Hope it is still available. If not may just add in the additional $'s. Those that have the 100 seem to love it. Have researched some of the others like the Ah and rega but something about the reviews on the Jolida have me headed that way. From the responses it sounds like there is a lot of room for improvement to my system with a good dedicated cd player. Listening is not possible where I live so have to depend on others experience and hope it matches with my system. Buying used shouldn't lose many dollars. Planned to start with a pre pro but got headed this direction. One step at a time should be fun.
Thanks again for the thoughts and suggestions.

To reinforce earlier comments, I own a Jolida JD-100 and find it imminently pleasing to listen to. It provides good dynamics, neutral or mid-row perspective, and sweet treble and great musicality. Punchy and pleasing is a good way to describe it. A bargain is another.

You will not regret it. I have the modded version from parts connexion. Extremely musical, warm, detailed, but not analytical or clinical. I hear the modded version improves the bass, but I haven't heard the unmodded player. All I can say,is that I auditioned many, many, players and the Jolida has what I was looking for. Immensely listenable.

A question, if I may, about this tube CDP. Is there any tube 'hiss' whatsoever from it to be heard through the speakers? I've had and heard tube preamps and amps, as the stereotype goes, most of course have rolled off highs and soggy lows, and along with the noise I can't stand to live with them. Are these characteristics also present in a tube CDP, such as the Jolida? Thanks!

Socrates, It all depends on the tubes chosen, and how pliable your speakers are. For example, there are a lot of people that just love Mullards, but in my system I couldn't get past the noise caused by microphonics. So I chose tubes that don't suffer from microphonics. Some ATX tubes roll off the highs, and I stay away from those too. All one has to do is a little research.

The Jolida will not load up on treble transcients, if that is your pleasure. It will not give your cds that etched "high end" sound. It will give a marvelously natural sound that is so real.
