Warm meaning??? Reducing noise can provide a warm sound, Conrad Johnson preamps and amps can provide a warm sound, some SS mosfet amps can produce a warm sound. You need to try combinations for yourself.

That way you get the warmth from the tubes but still have the bottom end grunt of a ss power amp. I have one system setup that way and it works very well for me. I have never even thought of going the other way....
