Do I want a preamp?


If my only source is going to be a CD player,
than should I sell my preamp and buy a CD player
with a volume control, and go directly into my amp?
If so, my thinking is a Cary 303/200. Any other suggestions?
Thanks for your help.

Audio Resolution Opus 21. There is a review somewhere comparing the two, try StereoTimes or Soundstage or check their web sites. May even try a search here on Agon. THe reviewer kept the Opus.
I have a Quad CDP player that I plug directly into the Power Amp. It even has 3 digital inputs which allow you to plug in other components to use its 24-192 DAC. Not as mellow as my previous Rega but the Quad has great detail and great tight bass compared to the Rega. The volume control is on the CD remote.
After listening to my wadia straight into my amp. I sold my tuner tape deck and Pre and have no regrets.
