I know most people would never think to see this kind of post on our forum but the ttime has come. Response Audio is setting up an elaborate, tube based home theater system.

 Here's what the system will consist of. At least these are my initial plans:

1) DVD player - Custom modified Jolida DVD-700 tube unit.
2) Amplification - Signature Jolida 3205 for fronts and rears.
                         Signature Jolida 3205 bridged mono for center
                         (all amps running KT88 tubes)
3) Main Speakers - Musica Bella SP/AV-2
4) Center Channel - Musica Bella SP/AV-2
5) Rear speakers - Musica Bella SP/AV-1
6) Projector - Undecided
7) Screen - Undecided

 As mentioned, these are only my initial thoughts. SOme details may change as we procede to assemble the system.

Musica Bella SP/AV-2.  That's gotta be something to see and hear!  Can't wait til you get some pics up on your website.

I forgot to mention that the front Bella-2's will be resting on Bella subs for a full range front end. I may even put the center channel on a sub also.

 If I feel spunky enough, sometime in 2006, I may also bring in another pair of Usher D2's to run a HT system around these speakers. I have the room for them so we will have to see what happens. First will come the full Daedalus HT system as I already have DA-2's and DA-Center in the works.

Jolida JD700 DVD Player For Sale

 With things being as busy as they are lately, the HT setup will have to be delayed till I get caught up. I brought in the Jolida DVD player for this arrangement but don't need to hold onto it now. All I did was replace the tubes, listened to it for about an hour and it has not be used since then (last week).

 I will let this one go for $900 with teh upgraded tubes (Svetlana 12AX7) and $10 shipping. In the picture below, it is the player on the right side.
