Amp with best bass control

Mbvoaird...whew...I was making a joke, and by the way my Eden bass cabs, a 12, a 15, and a 2X10, make most home audio speakers sound weak and silly...and they're paper. Also almost zero pro guitar players including myself use anything other than tube guitar amps, although for bass amps SS can sound fine.

@ Mbovaird, I took a peek at the EAR Acute 3 player, The reviews was the best I have ever read! , guess what? I happen to own all the best Taralabs makes for cables!, and I am in the market for a disc spinner, I do not like Ayons house sound, thats the 6h30 tubes do not do it for me!, I have a Ayon 2s thats great if you like that kind of presatation for a sound stage!, can you describe the sound of the EAR Acute 3 player? cheers.

I don't want to get off topic with discussions of a CD player, but I will say the EAR CD player sounded very warm, without any hint of typical digital edge or fatigue. There is digital I can listen to for hours (like the Linn Klimax DS, Akurate DS and even the new Marantz NA11S1), then there is digital that I can only stomach for an hour or less because while listening, things are "sticking out" which causes fatigue (I guess my brain has to work too hard!).

That being said, I will still take my analog/vinyl rig over everything "digital".

YMMV.

Isn't Class A supposed to be superior for bass control?

Not necessarily, in my experience, especially for the tight, controlled type bass you described. Good Class A amps may have realistic sounding, tuneful, well-defined bass, but not necessarily the tightest and most controlled bass, which may be found in some Class AB and even Class D amps. Of course the Class A Krells may be an exception.

@ Mbovaird, thankyou for your intro to this player, I will audition it to find out if its my flavor of tone and presatation, cheers.
