I started with a tube amp (CJ MV60)... all else was SS... Added a tube preamp (CJ PV14L) and finally a tube CDP shanling t100.. I kept thinking that the next step would make it too tuby... it never happened for me the sound just got warmer, deeper, and bigger. I kept thinking that the bass would get dull and the image would suffer... I never detected any downside.
Do tube CD players and tube pre-amps play nice?
Hello,
Should I stay away from CDPs and mods to CDPS that use tubes, or would that be OK with a unit such us a Belles 21A pre? I am currently looking for a used CDP $1000-$1500 US. I'll read a great review on a Cary, a Jolida, or a great mod to a Denon 2900 just to find out it uses tubes.
Thanks!
