Cary Cinema 8 vs. Krell Showcase vs. TagMclaren AV

Can anyone help me figure out the comparison between these the processors? My dad is a big fan of Cary amps, but there is nowhere close for me to listen to their processor. I've found a pretty good deal on a Krell Showcase, and a good deal on the Tag Mclaren AV32R. I'm particularly interested in opinions on the Cary and Tag, because there a ton of comments already here on the Showcase.

Thanks in advance!

I know nothing about the Cary, but the Parasound halo c2 is superior to the showcase and latest tag in every respect.

The c2 is available for around 3k street whith a 10 year warranty whith bug free operation, upgradability and is considered the pre/pro to buy in the 4k and under range.
There are even 5k pre/pros that were replaced by the c2.

Go to www.avsforum.com and you can find a huge thread on the c2 and which pre/pros it has replaced and/or been compared to.
