Experienced Jolida amp owners - Advice needed

Looking for feeback on which is the best tube integrated for a newbie. (102,202,302brc) I live in a condo and don't crank up the volume. My speakers are Paradigm mini monitor v3. My musical tastes are all over the board, I listen to all styles... I would be fine with learning how to bias the amp, just looking for the best sounding unit.

Jolida makes great stuff, and you really don't need "auto bias" if you own a small screwdriver and the amp is an "ez-bias" model. Takes about 46 seconds to bias 4 tubes.

Jolida uses whatever works...they're not "point to point" hand wired esoterica which makes them more affordable. Since they offer a very wide range of products I assume they work with a wide range of speakers (my amp has 4 and 8 ohm transformer taps, as do many Jolidas). I've plugged my 502p into not only my everyday setup (Silverline Preludes) but other things including a pair of small-ish 6 ohm KEFs I use as studio monitors, a pair of pro audio PA speakers, an older pair of sealed bass reflex speakers, and the toes of a friend who passed out on my couch. Worked great with all of 'em.
