Tamzarian,
I have no comment on the tubes verses solid state. Never heard a tube, but quite curious to do so one of these days…..
In regards to Ken’s point that you did not get, I believe that he is wondering why you would want (or prefer) to have a tube source AND a tube amp. As being a tube trait idiot, I can understand his question. Would not the tube amp add that little extra sonic characteristic you are looking for - seeing how it is downstream from the source (CD player)??
Again, I don’t understand the sonic difference between tubes and solid state, or how it is achieved, but logic makes me wonder why you would need both source and amp to be tube to get that “tube sound”.
I don’t think Ken was being anything but curious. I know I am…..
