I have talked to several Audiophile friends who say that the Cary 308T is one of the best sounding CD players ever made. One of those players where the stars somehow lined up just right and a 'lucky' accident of incredable fidelity occured. You might have some real trouble finding a better CD player. Perhaps the place to look is elsewhere in your system or tube rolling. I am looking to buy one myself. Let me know if still available.
Former Cary 308T owners - what next?
I have owned my 308T for about two years and would like to "upgrade." The Cary is fitted with Telefunken. My system is the Cary into a Manley Shrimp into an Aleph 5 Clone or McCormack DNA-125 into Tyler 7u. Music tastes are all over the board. Don't want to commit big $ because I believe that servers are eventually the way to go. I would like a player with more detail and less congestion and seek more space between the instruments. Currently considering the Arcam FMJ CD36 or 37, Linn Ikemi, and Music Fidelity A5. Strictly redbook cd, no video or SACD capability needed.
