Jolida CD-100...Who has moved on and...

What did you replace it with.

Looking for a player with more detail and extended top end. If you had this player at one time, what did you replace it with and how did it compare.

I changed speakers from a detailed ribbon speaker to a warmer conventional driver speaker. Looking to pick up some detail and extension on the top end...under 1k

Any suggestions

Thanks!

I had the Lolida 100. Garbage it was. Sold it and went to vinyl and never looked bsck. Remember Lot's wife?

I don't think of the Jolida as "garbage". Everyone's taste is different. I used it in a pure solid state system for quite a while, then added a tube pre-amp. At that point it was too much tube. It is all about the synergy of components working in concert to make a sound you like. I did add a PS Audio Digital link III on the back of the Jolida (bypassing the tubes) and it is a wonderful sound in my system. Since I don't know what else you have, I can't predict how it would work for you. As a transport it is reliable and the power supply is robust. I really liked it's sound. I think it would work best in a solid state system to add warmth and body to CDs. Good luck in your quest. And, remember to have fun.

I had the JD-100 many players ago, I never really warmed up to it. I'm now using a Cambridge 740c player and it offers all the qualities you are looking for under 1K.
