gettting a $500-1000 CD player (maybe one with a tubed output) then adding a quality passive preamp between that and your power amp. Maybe a transformer attenuator type, though I think you'd have to DIY.Forget about the CD players with the volume controls because those usually use the cheapest possible parts to add that feature.
Or the foreplay or similar tube pre may be worthwhile. Who cares what it costs. But it won't fix an outright poor source.
