Eastern Electric Minimax CD vs Jolida 100

i prefer neither. both sound like they don't have a tube analog stage. the minimax probably was the greater of the 2 evils.

i am a reviewer and have come to the conclusion that it is almost impossible to find a cd player which has a tube analog stage which sounds like it has tubes and is tube sensitive.

i can't recommend any player under $1000 and would have a problem myself finding one to satisfy my taste.
