Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: Jolida JD100A

I've owned a CD100A for a long time (I think I got it the second year of production). It's been retubed once, and also cleaned the laser once. It just goes and goes. The sound is fairly liquid (tubes?), and kinda analog like sounding. The remote could be used as a deadly weapon!! I have tried it using the digital out into a DAC, and just didn't see any improvement. To be honest with you it has a better sound than my old Sony 9000ES playing redbook stuff, and was the equale of my Marantz 8260 in everything.

I certainly feel I got my money's worth out of it; even if it died tomorrow morning! I have entertained the thought of sending it out for mods, but then again I might just get something new. Right now I'm interested in the Sony 5400ES.
