Hello Chris,I have the Cary CD-308 (solid state) and love it. My system is nowhere near as advanced as yours so as happy as I am with the cary you should be in heaven. 
The best var. out CD player for under 1500 used?
Hello 1741,I'm using a Cary CD308 (solid state unit not the "T"). It has the variable volume controll, 24/96 and HDCD. I do not run a Spectral amp nor do I run it straight into my amp but I can and will attest to the Cary's ability to deliver a fi...

Ham Radio Interference from next door neighboor
Hi Alan,There is a little device called a "TVI" filter that your neighbor can insert between his radio's output and his antenna. It should solve the problem and clear up the RF. The TVI is very cheap and if your neighor is at all friendly and a re...

Paradigm Studio 60 vs. PSB stratus silver i
Hello 9hcp,I'm currently running the 60v2's using a 10 year old NAD7100 receiver at 50wpc. At 50wpc the speakers do at times seem to want more juice and I have been told that they would in fact do better with more "clean" power. If your going to f...
