Anyone ever seen or heard a Cary Audio CD-302 ?

thanks tholt, for that revelation! LOL i have seen the owners manual and this is NOT a tubed unit. my main goal is to see if someone has actually owned one or seen one. Cary has been of little assistance and has no information on remote codes etc. It would be cool if someone has an opinion on the sound of this unit since I like it very much!I would also like to get a remote for it although Cary has no info on a remote.
There has been well over 100 hits on this thread and no one else has ever seen one? Just seems weird to me .thanks

not sure what to make of that. the company that made the unit

a) hasn't heard of it
b) has a manual of it but it's not what you have

why dont you send them pics of the unit and a serial #. the lack of input on this thread seems to be a sign. That you like the sound so much may be the only thing you're ever sure of. i assume you asked the seller for more info? ill watch for your name when you sell it... your write up should be interesting!

I really hate to knock a company like this, but they dont seem to be willing to help at all.To be more specific, I contacted them a few different times by phone,Gerald I beleive is his name, was very freindly, but could offer no info , other than he had a copy of an owners manual and a schematic diagram that were both incorrect. The manual, that you can get from Google (yes I have heard of that)claims to be a tube player, mine is not( I suspect they may have been available in both forms(smart huh?)
The schematic (per Gerald) listed the unit as a 18 bit converter and mine is clearly 20 bit.They have no info on remote codes,remote availability, parts availability or even a manufacturing date? (OR EVEN YEAR).
I wrote them the other day to see about changing the front panel buttons to a brighter color(the unit is black and the buttons are black and very hard to see when the lights are low), and I got a response back and all they email said was..."those are not available"Not even a "thanks for your inquiry" or, "we are glad that you use our products" or even "stop bothering us " LOL..
By the way I think my ad may read as follows...FOR SALE THE INFAMOUS CARY AUDIO CD 302..THE BEST KEPT SECRET IN AUDIO!!!!!!!!!! I dont think they care enough to even bother to try and figure out whats up.
I just hope it never breaks!Glen

Best kept secret -- good one. I've dealt with Gerald before via email, he is cryptic. But at least he replies, which is better then some.

i would try the picture route and maybe a follow up phone call.

Have you tried speaking to Dennis Had? This sounds incredible to me....you
would think the Cary personnel would at least be curious about their own
product!!!
