Is the Cary SLP-05 still relavant?

Avan

Are you sure you’re looking at the right Cary Audio preamp? They have both balanced and unbalanced inputs and outputs. May want to double check. 

Seems to have passed the test, highly recommend one.

Anyone want to sell me their silver one? 😁

If any of you guys are still around, help me out here please. I'm a little confused on gain matching. The gain is high, 24db with balanced outputs, on the SLP-05. What is the ideal amplifier gain, or gain range for optimum performance match?

@charliee , sorry, I don't have an answer to your question, but if you start a new thread related to the specific question, you will probably get more responses from knowledgeable people that way than by reviving an older thread.

However, here is another thread related to SLP 05 and too much gain.

SLP 05/too much gain?

@immatthewj,

Thank you.
