Jolida JD 100 PC suggestions

Audiofeil: Well, since you mention it . . . In addition to the Jolida, I use an Odessey Stratos Dual Mono Extreme, Marsh 2000b pre, and am in the process of putting together North Creek Eskas (listening room = living room; Eskas designed for near front wall in smallish rooms). I expect the CDP might be the most natural upgrade, finances and inclination permitting. I'm guessing I'd want to stay under 2k (used is fine), given the surrounding gear. Suggestions?

Electrocompaniet, Consonance Droplet (prices are dropping), Cary 303/300 (tube and solid state outputs) or Cary 308T. Another option, get a DAC like the Monarchy M24 and use the Jolida as a transport.

There are a lot of nice machines in the 2K range. If it were me, I would look for a newer used model from an established Audiogoner with good feedback. Most of these units are for sale because the owner is upgrading. Look for Ayre, Wadia, Cary, Musical Fidelity, Naim, etc.

Lastly, if you are willing to wait a little and save some extra money for something in the 3K range, this opens up many more options and IMO will offer you much much more.

Good luck.

I also use the Supra Lo rad. I was using the Signal Cable digital PC. I like the detail of the Supra.
