About the JD 100A
The Jolida JD100A is a dedicated Red Book CD player with tube output stage, designed for warm, analog-like sound reproduction. It employs a discrete tube gain stage using two 12AX7A tubes, no op-amps, dual transformers, a Burr-Brown 24-bit/96 kHz DAC, and a Philips CDM-12 transport mechanism. It is programmable for up to 24 tracks and includes a full-function metal remote with random access, search, and repeat functions. Connectivity comprises IEC power inlet, Toslink optical and coaxial digital outputs, and gold-plated RCA analog outputs, plus a variable headphone output (35 mW into 32 ohms) driven by a MOSFET-based amplifier. The unit features robust metal construction with internal shielding, measures approximately 17" x 12" x 3.5" and weighs about 22 lbs (11 kg), reflecting its solid build quality.
