Consonance Droplet

Hi Tomahack- Just curious why you sold the Cary 306 SACD? I tried the Droplet and thought it was okay- nothing special. I now own the Cary 306 SACD and think it is much better than the Droplet. The 306 (in my system) was more dynamic, had more detail, better imaging, and more engaging. I was also not impressed as some with the build quality. It appeared to have a lot of "wrapping" instead of true inside-out build quality if that makes sense.

Hello Fsarc,

I based my choice on feedbacks and the fact that the Droplet have buit-in volume control like the 303-300 that I owned before the 306. I will probably sell it anyway when the new transport from CEC will be available sometime this fall. The only weak aspect of the 306 IMO is the limited image depth.

Tomahack,

Do you have any info on the new transport from CEC? Price? Belt drive? Is it supposed to replace the TL2X?

Thanks

Only info I got is that it is suppose to slip between the TL-0x and the TL-51X with a retail price around $3500. Double suspension, belt drive.
