A question regarding "tubes"


This may me a dumb question but does all tube products (amps, CD player and pre amps) roll off, or softens the highs and gives up some bass slam.

Add the Audio Aero Capitol to your list. I just got one and can honestly say that although I have not had a vinyl set up in more than 10 years, the Capitol comes as close to vinyl as any CDP I've ever owned. BTW, much less than 8K used!
The Audio Aero Capitol is a very good player, and I have to add that I only heard it a shows, but IMHO that would more of a vertical move, with my setup.
Please understand that I like the sound of the BAT player and if I never when back into vinyl would be very happy with it. I just wanted to know if in fact, does tube player roll off the highs and limit deep bass in addiction I want a CD player with just as much detail as my turntable, and still have that analog sound of the BAT.
the bat rolls off the treble ??? no way. the bat tube amp is very open and detailed, verging on the edgy. i have heard bat systems many times and have asked the questions why don't bat amps, preamps and cd players sound like tubes.

however, the real problem is most amps, preamps, cd players fabricated in 2006 using today's digital recordings as sources have too much energy in the upper mids and lower treble. i have been looking for an amp for 2 years and i have not found one amp offering 75 watts or more that i would want to own.

i am currently looking for a cj mv 125, the best amp i have ever heard.

it's a problem out there finding components with subtractive coloration. manufacturers are mindful of reviewr's comments about that kind of coloration. consumers are taught to believe that resolution is the epitome of sound quality.
If your willing to spend a lot less, Njoe Tjoeb. I like the stock unit sound for my cd mix of a bit of everything (a bit forgiving but not carried away with it). The upgraded dac version of the Tjoeb is supposed to be more detail oriented if that is your thing.
