Reliablity of Jolida equipment


I understand this is probably a "thread" that has been asked before...but as a working class stiff with tight funds...is the so-called tube "glow" worth it in terms of tube replacements,biasing,etc...at the $500 used level...would a solid state amp...in terms of low maintenance...be the better option...I am not one for "modifying" or tweaking equipment...I just want decent sound...

I have gone on record a couple of times in the past saying how much I enjoy the sound of my 302B. I purchased this unit NEW from the Jolida dealer in Seattle. I actually had this unit for sale on the 'Gon, but pulled the ad when the unit started acting up. I have had to return the unit twice to the dealer, and the second time it was shipped to Jolida for inspection. Not only was the transformer bad, but the whole power supply board was shot, too. To their credit, they replaced all the offending parts, QC'd the unit, and sent it back at no charge. I've had it for about a month, with no trouble and great sound, but I'd be less than honest if I said I wasn't still a bit worried. Gosh it sounds nice when everything is working, though...
Thank you all for your responses...I have decided to stay with solid state...for now anyways...maybe used Conrad Johnson down the road...happy listening!
If any of you guys think that changing a tube is 'high maintenence', get a Bose Acoustic Wave.
Someone told me: you get what you are paying for, that's how it is, but there are exceptions. I owned Jolida 302B for 2weeks. There were rattling parts inside when I got it, I opened it up and found loose nuts rolling over the case inside, no big deal.I was listening, adjusting bias, changing tubes, and doing like this again and again.
Now I have BVaudio A30S and it looks like I will stick with this unit for a long time.
