What do Oil Caps do and how do they effect sound?
They smooth out the sound (more refined sound). Given more details and seperation, music notes have more decay and body. 
What is the best tube for a Conrad Johnson
Try to find the NOS EL34 Telefunkens (very rare and expensive- $100.00 per tube). Test of they are the best of the best. Good luck.

Will tube amp give more of an analog sound to CD's
My system consists of SS CDP, tube preamp and tube amps. They together make a very synergistic, 3D and lively sound. I had one time switched to SS amp but I could not stand the analytic sound; therefore, I have to definitely go back to where I was...
