This is essentially an all Jolida system. The manufacturer is local, so listening sessions were easy. It didn't take long to become a believer and I built this dedicated system outside of the home theater. Real happy with it. Auditioned it head up with the likes of McIntosh and MBL. The difference was more appealing to me, and you just can't go wrong at a fraction of the cost. If I had it to do over I might have opted for the RC preamp.
