Eastern Electric Minimax CD vs Jolida 100

they are briefly reviewed against one another on page 3 of this review: http://6moons.com/audioreviews/eelectric3/stack.html
hope this helps,

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

That's how I see some other tubed CD players (Shanling). They sound totally solid state to my ears, don't know what is the use of tubes though?

but, do you have any other suggestions about good CD player under 1000 $?
