Sonar - Tube Warmer / Vintage vs Audition 3.01

Trying to match Sonar soung with Tube Warmer / Vintage plugins added to 2 trk mix.

A musician I work with has Sonar  and uses Tube Warmer / Vintage plugins. I've been staying away from plugins as much as possible using tube warmth from real amps with tubes and the Telefunken V76 micpre that does a nice job at making sound present. Tried matching the two Sonar effects with Adobe - multiband compression (tight bass) - radio limiter - mastering (width / loudness / exciter) - then FFT for sweetening. Close but Sonar has a more dynamic edge.

How can Audition 3.01 equal Sonar? Maybe you can tell me what's going on..... will post samples soon.
