My girl friend is a genius

Anyone remember the movie Cactus Flower?
Walter Matheau says to his buddy in not exactly these words, "who ever said anything about married" his buddy then says "well if you feel that way about her don't you think you should marry her" W.M. responds " I feel that way about my girl because she is my girl, you'll never catch me feeling that way about a wife."

Does the tube preamp make this happen and the ss preamps get in the way?
Is sounds closer to life-like.
Though the bass at times is shy and at other times not so shy.
How do I increase the bass?

Also will a tube amp increase bass?

My girl never called me a genius, more like moron.

There's other things she calls me but the monitors wouldn't allow me to include it on this thread.
Genius hah! you are one lucky guy!!!

Blindjim,
Thanks for the response. I believe at lower volumes even the ss pre would appear to put out less bass because at higher levels the room gets loaded with bass more so than at lower levels.
Last night I bought an lp of piano on bis label, never has my system sounded so life-like. I may have to take back my statement about bass shy and leave it alone. This combo of equipment is just right. This is what I am using now: Zu/denon 103r, graham 2.2 modded, vpi tnt modded, jlti phono stage (very special phono), audio experience a2se, simaudio w-5, merlin vsm's. Room treated on all sides.

I forgot to mention as someone here on gon (thanks Mike) pointed out ss pre's can sound lean, this is something I did notice with my system.
