Feedback on CARY products....

I have always been happy with my Cary 2A3 monoblocks. A good company that stands behind their products. I am not saying that other products are not better, I just like the way some Cary amps sound.

I had the Cary 300SEI and it didn't impress me at all. You could do better with a $1500 solid state.

I have an SLI-80 integrated and a CD-303 cd player.
Fantastic sound. Open, clear, realistic, musical etc.
Seem very reliable too.

I had a very high end solid state system (Krell, Levinson, etc.). I sold it all once I heard a pair of Cary 572 monoblocks. I couln't go back to the solid state stuff. I sold the 572 after a month to move up to the Cary 805C's. I now have their new 306/200 CD player and am waiting for their new SLP-2002 preamp to be released. I am using the SLP-50B preamp. An all Cary system. I agree with a previous poster about the silver interconnects. I am using the Kimber Select silver interconnects and speaker cables. My system sings! Buy Cary. You won't be disappointed.

I don't think you'll get any feedback with the Cary's : ). Actually I don't know what they are doing these days. And technically I believe there is feedback in any amplifier design somewhere. I've heard one or two of there's and wasn't too impressed, I'm on the SS side like Khaki8. My current amp is a hybrid, but if i could only do one it would be transistors. I won't say anymore 'cause the debates gone on long enough. But I would audition at least one or two nice SS amp-blind maybe. Ya, the tubes will have a warmer, mushier sound, but its not accurate and also compressed with lack of power. My two cents.
