Have the 05, love it.  It is the one piece that has stayed in my system.  We have compared it to ARC Ref 5se and they are neck to neck, but the Cary 05 being much cheaper and easier to tube roll.  
I had a SLP 05. I sold it. I still am still sorry to this day.  If it works with your other gear, the SLP 05 could be your pre amp for life.
Hello Scott,
You still  miss the Cary SLP-5 even though you currently have a Pure Sound L 300?
