Replacement of Cary CD player

PS Audio DMP.  Also plays SACD.  It's a transport, so you can keep your DAC.  You'll need to get a used one, as I believe PS Audio only sells a SACD only transport now.  

I seen many friends/acquaintances that sell up on their huge CD collection to go to servers or streaming.

This is the latest <<craze>> Not a  bandwagon I will ever jump on. My 20th C classical cd collection is complete, my  Cayin cd17 Mark 1,  just finished modding ///sounds ,,superr high fidelity>> just added a  Shanling 3000 and is being upgraded /new M caps + Sparksoslab descrete op amps, ..not sure which will beat out which in <,The Great tube cdp shootout>> 
My bet is on the Shanling once mods are completed in 3 weeks. 
anyway, my suggestion is geta  Cayin CD17 Mark2, which has a incredible INDESTRUCTIBLE trans(12 yrs use /zero issues) + tube DAC. Bal/unbalnced employs 6922 in both circuits. 
You will not regret it. 

Simaudio 260D without the DAC

excellent advice as above regarding keeping the Cary 308T.
Purchase a few back up CDM12 laser assemblies  and enjoy the Music!

Happy Listening!

I've been using the Cary CD308T since 2003 or 2004 but it developed a problem - interrupted playback. I brought it to a tech this year as I thought that the problem was caused by the old and weak laserhead.The tech said 'no' and replaced the stock caps underneath the plate with Nichicon caps, which did not help. Then, as he said, he found the problem - there was some faulty Philips PCB regulating a drive motor...Such PCB is unobtanium but he managed to find one, after which it works, with some limitations. He brought be a new optical laser lense free (he ordered it from China) but said it was not the problem with the  optical laser lense.
To make a long story short, I ordered a new Canor 1.10 CD player/DAC which cost me EUR 3.000 (including a 30% dealer's discount). 
It is an excellent device but the Cary sounds more delicate and sweet - such music as Yello ands Clannad sounds better with Cary!
