@geleary123 I just went to Cary Direct, Shopping Cart, shows the SLP-05 in stock. https://carydirect.com/shop-now/preamplifiers/slp-05.html

Did you answer the question @dill asked above, who told you that?


Cary has primarily gone to direct sales, so I would guess they are getting bashed by some disgruntled former dealers.
The SLP-05 is an incredible sounding preamp and the most transformative upgrade I have ever made in my system.  
Cary direct does sell them but I was able to order it through my Cary dealer to work in a trade piece.  
I don't think they changed the design on their Dennis Had designed products. Wouldn't make sense as long as the products are selling. However I see that Upscale Audio dropped the Cary line. Probably due to the change to direct sales.
