We demonstrate high-energy soliton generation from $1560\mathrm{nm}$ to $1700\mathrm{nm}$ using soliton self-frequency shift in a large-mode-area fiber. A $1.5\mathrm{ps}$ time-lens source at $1544\mathrm{nm}$ is used as the input source. The combination of a time-lens source and soliton self-frequency shift in a large-mode-area fiber enables a turn-key, high pulse quality, wavelength-tunable, energetic femtosecond source with arbitrary pulse repetition rate.
