FS: Jolida JD100A with Level 1 Mods
I am selling my JD100 with Level Mods from Underwoodwally. This is the Jolida authorized modification and the modded player sells for $1330 new. It has been very well reviewed, including on 6moons. Below is a description of the mods.
This player works flawlessly and looks great, but there are a few things to note -- (1) I have replaced the 4 scres that hold the cover to the chassis. I did this because the screws on the right side were not tightening properly. The changed screws didn't make much of a difference. Since it is just aluminum on aluminum, I guess that the holes have become somewhat enlarged over time. The screws still go in and out fine, and they are not screws that hold the player together. They hold the cover to the player and there is no functional impact on the player. (2) The Jolida remote comes with four small rubber feet on the back. These are now gone. If you've never seen the remote with the feet, you wouldn't know that anything was supposed to be there.
Comes with original box and manual. Will double box for shipping. Asking $550, shipped within the Continental U.S. Paypal add 2.9% I will take hi-rez pictures this weekend and can email them to anyone interested. I have very good feedback here and on Audiogon under boschtb, and on ebay under tomiwah.
