jolida fx10


Hi there
I'm new to audiogon,for.a long
Timd I,ve been wamting
A tube amp,my nad has served me well
Over the years but its getting old
I,ve been considering jolida fx 10 my speakers are the paradigm atom v.5 and are 8 ohm with sensativity at 90db so there should be no problums. With the jolidadriving them if also have been thinking of jolida,s 301rc buti its a hybrid so I'm. Also wondering if a lot of the tube magic is lost in a hybrid amp I'm. Not a head banger ,what's your thaghts

Do not get the hybrid. A totally different animal.

The FX10 only puts out 10wpc, so I think it might be marginal at 90db. Maybe others will dissagree. I used an 8wpc 300b amp with 92 db 8ohm speakers (Reference 3a de Capos) and had it clip at higher volume levels in a 12x12 room.
Agree with Lars. Or you could consider a rebuilt vintage EL84 amplifier. In any case, the EL84 is a great tube!
