Yeah Rich I have had my eye on that one but I would more than likely go with the tube buffer in front of the Creek amp instead.

So, does owning a Jolida 1501RC hybrid let me into the club? I do love it, and I have it driving a pair of Maggie MMGs. Very nice pairing, and it does sound different (and better) to me than either the Outlaw monoblocks or Rotel integrated (908BX I think). I have not tried it with my wife's pair of M3tis, but perhaps I will someday. Rich

Tom, I love them. You either love that sound or you don't. There is just such an incredible sense of presence, of air, of just being there in the middle of the instruments.
On the downside, placement is a huge requirement, so they weren't a good fit for the home theater or main living areas.
Drop me a line if you want more info! I know that lots of folks who love planars can't listen to non-planars, but I've got room in my heart for all of them!
Oh, and the Jolidas have been the best sounding amp with the maggies, and they do require some serious juice!
Rich
