Editorial Reviews:
Product Description JoLida is a communication company. It believes that sound can have a great impact on the life of an individual. Sound has the capacity to inspire, stir emotion and create empathy. It encompasses the whole range of human emotions and transcends age, color, race, culture and walk of life and goes right to the heart of our humanness. The ability to create emotion is the province of the artist. The company's task is to provide the electronic means by which this artistry can be communicated as the artist intended, hence JoLida is a communication company not the communication. It is the message bearer, not the message. Therefore, JoLida's mission is to develop, manufacture and distribute quality sound systems.PRODUCT FEATURES: Fully integrated stereo amplifier: input 550mV driving 70 watts, maximum 140 watts peak output; Multiple inputs: front mounted selector switch-CD, Tape and Aux (for Tuner, TV, DVD Player, VCR or Computer); Custom wound audio transformers with a core of German grain oriented silicon steel; 15th generation proprietary design; secondary can be configured for a 4 ohm or 8 ohm load; State of the art components: High quality audio potentiometer, gold plated RCA input jacks, gold plated five way speaker connectors; Top panel bias testing terminal with bias adjustment controls.

An amazing amplifierMay 23, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I had been a restless audiophile, upgrading components, buying new interconnect and speaker cables, changing to Martin-Logan electostatic speakers, generally looking for a more satisfying listening experience.
After buying a new JD 801 amplifier in 2000, the hunt for better equipment came to an end because this is a very musically satisfying amplifier. The soundstage is broad and deep, the bass is tight, controlled, and has good extension, the mid-range is liquid, and the highs a little bit rolled off. This amplifier has an excellent sense of rhythm - the music just flows. Vocals are very natural, giving the sense that the singer is in the living room. The tone and timbre of musical instruments - guitar, piano, bass, strings - are like the real thing.
Having experienced tubes, there's no going back to solid state equipment. The emotion and soul of the music comes through. The combination of tubes and electrostatic speakers is magical, grabs your attention, and pulls you in.
There is more expensive gear from vendors such as VTL, VAC, and others that delivers sonic improvements over the JD 801. What's not clear, though, is that the music and overall listening experience would be more satisfying. It's about the music, not the audio equipment at this point.

The 5.1 channel home-theater-in-a-box system features five tiny speakers - each about the size of a golf ball. The system, matched with a compact, single disc DVD/CD player/receiver, includes a unique subwoofer that helps the tiny speakers create sounds typically reserved for full size speakers.
While the system features small speakers, it packs all the power of conventional home theater-in-a-box systems with 450 watts of total system power (satellite speakers 50W x 5, plus 2-way subwoofer 100W x 2). The system is specially tuned to deliver a natural sound field that takes the focus off the subwoofer while supplementing mid range and lower frequencies.
