I personally think Cary Audio has made its outstanding success in designing and manufacturing top rated streamers starting DMS-500 as the fundation. We all know the DMS-500 is still an awesome streamer actively in the used market, it certainly can be enjoyed many more years considering its full pack of high end chipset and audio features (especially the hard-to-find well implemented DSD upsampling feature). And Cary audio has been clearly making substantial "improvements" in DMS-550, DMS-600 and now up the game to DMS-700. It’s very tough to "better" the already "excellent" designs and this intention does involve high investments both financially and intelligently. Otherwise you and i today wouldn’t be investing our hard earned monies and became proud owners of Cary streamers and take our time sharing our experiences here.
Again, I am very glad that i have made the decision to upgrade to DMS-700. It’s one of the very best streamers in today’s competitive market. I come from Asia and Cary brand streamers have earned super high regards from music lovers in Asian markets, same as in the USA. Now i reside in Western Canada but unfortunately we have zero audio dealer carrying Cary brand product here so only very few consumer know about the brand. Anyway, you can only love it or hate it, in this case i truly appreciate it !
