trying to decide between Cary 303/300 and BAT CD

Tube CD is interesting, and can be good, but I find the most real sounding and very high build quality is in the Wadia, try what you can first, but with anything there is good and not so desirable with any type of equipment, build quality and sound go wadia for digital, the Bat is a close second for a different sound but will be softer on the bass, cary is good but a little bit pricey I think used in comparison and not the same build quality as the other two transport wise.

I just posted a review of a Resolution Audio Opus 21 GNSC Modified. I am a dealer for RA as well as for GNSC modified units, so please keep that in mind. But this is the best digital I have ever heard.....I have not heard everythign out there, but I urge you to check this out.

In my opinion, the STOCK Opus 21 easily beats out the BAT in transparency and detail, PRAT and that hard to find analog quality. The only thing it does not have is the rich midrange that tubes bring. With the mods, it is in a totally different league...........

Different price ranges, but if you go for the BAT D5SE, get it with the SuperPak option. Big difference as it is with all the BAT products with SuperPak.

Fat Cat, just wondering what players you've compared to the Opus GNSC?

Allegro12, did you buy the 24 Bit version of the VK-D5, or the older 20 Bit version?
