Any feed back on McIntosh C2300 va Cary Audio slp0

I have an SLP-05, and I love mine. What do you want to know about it?

Only one minor irritation - the remote control is a cheap card remote, and the remote eye is buried too deep in the chassis. This means you have to beam almost dead on before the preamp sees your commands. Makes the remote almost useless.

Amfibius,
Thanks, what do you like about it? What power amp and speakers are you running? I've heard this preamp at a store... played through the Cary 110 watt tube power amp and some very large Linn speakers. The sound was great. Anyone out there have experience w/ the Mac C2300?

Id go with the Cary. This is from a guy who currently owns MAC and previously owned Cary.
