Hello Ray,
Good move on the battery power.Hope it works well in your system.
Battery power for audio applications it's actually come along way these past few years believe it or not.

On a differant note.

I know you live in Florida.
We woke up to a trace of snow this morning....

Hello Chad,Still showing signs of breaking in with around 40 hours,no noise at all, battery power works well.very good dynamics,nice wide deep layered soundstage goes past outer edges of speakers,very good detail and retrieval of low level signal.Bass is pretty good,but hope it fills in a bit more with more hours.LPs sound esp. good!When I get to the 100 hour mark ill have another report!Ive been working like crazy as people are taking vacations lately!!Talk to ya soon!Ray

My Jolida arrived Friday,,,I am very pleased with the sound!Just recieved a matched pair of Tung-sol reissue 12AX7 to replace stock Chinese tubes,,hoping to hear some improvement.Man ,,is it nice to listen to my LPs again!!!!!!!!!! The Jolida replaced an Acoustech PH1P that I had to sell last year.I will write a comparison in a few days,,of course with the PH1P I will be going by memory .Well,have to change out a couple tubes.Ray

I should have my Malbecs in 3 to 4 months!Music sure has been a great comfort during some hard times as always!Chad I just got a new phone,ill call you soon.Thanks for thinking about me!

raytheprinter

I used to talk to him weekly and now nothing, no phone I know his internet got shot off long ago, I just hope he is ok and didnt slip up or worse...if you know him you understand my concern.

chadnliz

Hi Chadnliz,Thanks for the note.Sometime has past since I spoke to Ray via e-mails.His last e-mail Ray told me he took a new job in another part of Florida and was concidering buying a house....We hope he's O.K. too.Please keep us informed.Mark and Donna

stiltskin

Ray is MIA and his phone is no longer working or his email and I havent talked to him in months, I am worried about what has happened to him and hope he is ok.......I just wanted posters here to know.

chadnliz

Nice ambience- looks like a great place to kick back with a fatty and a few friends listening to music, perhaps that days record haul? : )

leica_man

Hi Ray,

As a potential Malbec purchaser, l was wondering if you have received your amps and what you think of them?

Regards,
Mondie
