    Same here; you can get more reputable pre's for that money and less; not saying that Jolida is not good stuff, but I've seen many Envoy's beimg sold as "demo" for less money; it seems to me they need to push them out the dorr....

    Edit:

    This add is there FOREVER.

    Don't want to hijack the thread, but I am wondering is it possible to get a good tubed pre-amp around a grand that have all the following features:

    1. Decent MM/MC phono section
    2. At least 4 inputs
    3. HT bypass
    4. Full function remote

    FWIW, Wally is a stand up dealer and a helluva nice guy to boot.
