esoteric x-03 vs CAry 306 SACD


Anyone compared the two?

I have heard them next to each other going thru Mcintosh C2200 + 501 Monoblocks driving Tannoy Yorkminster speakers. It was a newly set up system that wasa not run in. I felt the Cary has more warmth and weight & had the convenience of going direct. Esoteric had better detail and the transport is way better.

Glai,

More importantly, what did you think of the Mac/Tannoy combo? Only kidding about the more importantly part but I'd be interested in the answers to your question also as I have been considering the Cary 306SACD to upgrade from my 303-100.

Mike.
