Tubed Integrated/$1500/New or Used


My good friend is seriously in the market for a tubed integrated @ the $1500 price point, new or used.
He's leaning torward a modded Jolida which I know nothing about.
Midrange warmth and presence is important.
Your recommendations please.
Thanks!

I just spend some time the the Consonance M100. This is a real sleeper. Very impressed. The huge power supplies and EL34s pull great low/mid bass from my AP Tempos. Highly recommended.
I was most impressed with the Antique Sound Labs 1001 DT integrated; well within that price range, new. Worth a listen if available...Fine resolution of detail, airy, lively sound; rich, warm but not fuzzy.
