my own doing would be a vintage pioneer amp or sx receiver. i have a marantz 1070 integrated amp that sounds real nice, and a pioneer sx 880 that sounds great. have klipsch speakers, good cables and interconnects. onkyo c7030 cd player. suits me fine. i do not need levi jeans when faded glory jeans do me fine at $10 pair. we used to laugh about japanese made gear, now we brag about if something was made in japan. some of these china made amps will prove out in the long run. jolida will become a respected name. the amps exceed their price in performance quaility and build quality. take care.
