Many years ago, I remember listening to a Jolida Integrated Amp (can't remember the model #) at a dealer hooked up to a pair of Martin Logan speakers that sounded absolutely fantastic; very natural, transparent and real, and this was a combo that I could have easily lived with long term, regardless of price.

The JoLida 502B was my intro to tubes thanks to John at Community Audio in Germantown PA. Had that unit for 10 years and put a lot of hours on it. It was reliable, robust and benefitted from tube rolling, HiFi Tuning Fuses and especially the very affordable JoLida Maryland factory upgrade. I liked it best with KT88s vs 6550s. I very much enjoyed that amp and only moved away from it to get some higher power mono blocks to drive Totem Forests. Hope you can find somewhere close by to audition the JoLida or other tube products you might be considering.
The Jolida JD 707A was a nice amp. It was offered only briefly but was a very nice, musical amp. If you find one on the used market you might consider it if it's 40wpc suits your needs.
