| tube vs SS preamp Tried both several times and I'm going back to the Cary 05 tube pre. Just can't live without tubes. | |
| Good SS amp for Cary SLP98? I've used it with a Plinius SA-102 with great results. | |
| Looking to re-build my system.... Cary SLP 05 Just purchased the SLP 05.... is there any difference between the original and the newer versions? I noticed the front faceplate is a little different. | |
| CARY CAD 211 FE PeterWhy did you upgrade from the 211? | |
| Cary SLP 03 SLP98 or 98 F1 does not compare well against the 05. Never heard the 03. | |
| Best Center Channel to Pair with B&W 803D2 Perhaps the BW CM series. It doesn't have the protruding tweeter enclosure but still has the tweeter enclosure built in. It doesn't have the same tweeter material, but it will probably be the closest you get. | |

| Vienna Acoustic Hayden grand or Polk audio lsi9 Don't know if I would classify the sound signature of the LSi9 as laid back, I think it is more a lack of detail. If you listen closely, the treble is there but the mids are muddled by the poorly defined bass. | |
| Cary SLP-05 owners/Tube Rings Switched my rectifier tube to the Philips Miniwatt... never looked back. You could go with tube rings, but think about changing it also. | |
