Minimax CD vs. Njoe Tjoeb w/upsampler


Anyone had a chance to listen to (or own) both of these players? I currently own the Njoe Tjoeb w/upsampler and am happy with the sound--good balance of depth, detail, and musicality--but not so hot on the build quality or dim display. So I've recently become intrigued by the Minimax which goes for about the same price with what appears to be better build and many of the same features (except upsampler) as the NJ. Any input from fellow Audiogoners on the relative sound and merits of the two would be very appreciated.

i have had experience with the minimax and its bane of contention, the 6922 tube.

closer to truth than beauty is what i hear. i hear an imbalance in the frequency response, with an emphasis upon the upeer mids and lower treble.
