Oh, they're definitely amplifying...

If you read the test post I mentioned that the signal without the tubes in place had much lower gain. The tubes are providing both amplification and that wonderful (to some) tube sound and versatility. That's a good thing if you're looking for it, right?

I never intended for my questions about the JoLida JD 9 to become a competitive (or disparaging) comparison with other phono stages. I don't really care if the JoLida JD 9 is or isn't the best. Listening to home stereo music is not (normally) a competitive event. I merely was curious about it's design and circuitry. Between my conversation with a helpful JoLida Representative and the helpful advice and suggestions of several Inmates, I am quite confident that my JD 9 is working as it should and am very satisfied with the music I hear coming from my home stereo.

If your phono preamp is better than the JoLida JD 9 than I'm glad you found one you really like. But please don't knock JoLida unless you know for sure what you're talking about.
