Hi,
Im looking to upgrade my NAD C352 integ amp, which
is paired to Music Hall Cd25.2 and Von Schweikert
VR-1 monitors, using DH Labs cables.
Would the Jolida prove to be a huge sonic improvement of my current NAD amp??
THanks! |

It'll be different. Better, worse, or indifferent is in the ear of the beholder.
The 352 is a very good amp. The Jolidas are reportedly good sonically, but have had their share of reliability issues.
I'm not a fan of the Music Hall gear, especially the CD25.2. To my ears, it sounds very dull, slow, and lifeless. Too much hifi, not enough emotional drive and musicallity IMO. |

What don't you like about the NAD ? The Jolidas have certain characteristics that some love, some not so much. What problem are you trying to solve ? |
