I have been listening to both the Project Tube Box and the Jolida for the last several days and would say that the Tube Box seems to be a little cleaner, more transparent and less bright than the Jolida. The only thing I don't like about the Tube Box is the fact that the faceplate must be removed to be able to change tubes; a bit of an inconvenience.
Jolida JD-9A or Pro-ject Tube Box SE phono preamp?
I have a Jolida JD-9 but have been told by a popular on-line retailer that the Pro-ject Tube Box SE provides cleaner response and is a lot more transparent than the Jolida. Both units use two 12AX7 tubes and cost about the same. Curious if anyone has listened to either of these units and what your thoughts are. Thanks, Bob
