Warmer sounding CD Players?


Are there warmer(tube like) sounding CD Players then my Music Hall 25? The detail of this cd player is incredible and bass improvement over my old player is just great but I am LP lover (I play 50-50% CD/LP) and my taste seems to lean more towards the warmer sound. I have NAD Receiver and Paradigm Studio 20v3s which are both very neutral and on the warmer side also.
I've had my Music Hall 25 w/level 1plus mods for a while but I'm thinking of trying something warmer,, Any suggestions?

I've owned the Music Hall 25 with level 2 mods from underwood and also the Jolida 100 with level 1 mods.
You will find the added warmth with the Jolida.That music hall does have incredible inner detail resolution however especially on percussion.That being said i feel i like the overall presentation of the Jolida.I currently run a modwright 999ES (full monty) tube player and the jolida was kind of close but not in the same league.Nor should it be for the money but i would throw the Joida 100 into the ring of players to possibly audition.Not quite ready to sell mine yet but you should be able to find one modded for not that much cash.The jolida is a fine player and not much resolution is lost but alot more warmth is gained i feel.At least in my system that was the verdict.
