Tube CD-player question

The Regas are smooth...I remember hearing a Planet a few years ago and wondered if it had tubes. Very warm.

i have a vincent model 6, using 1 12 volt and 1 6 volt tube in the buffer stage. it retails for about $1800.
i am using it as a transport with a sigtone shek d2 16 bit dac. i am satisfied with the combination in that it doesn't bleed my ears. the cd player by itself is perhaps on the transparent side and a bit too detailed for my taste, but it seems to be a decent transport.

Second the Modwright units. A tube rectified one is the way to go. Great units and superb values.

Raysonic 128 ... its too good for the price point, or any price point

If you can find a ModWright modified Sony here at a reasonable price I think you would be happy. I'm very happy with mine,not a day goes by that I regret buying it.
