Platsolos, I have heard the Metronome CD-2V in a full VAC tube system. It is smooth and has a very deep soundstage. I highly recommend it. I think there is one here on Audiogon for around 2200, so you should be able to get it for ~2000. I was actually going to buy the one that sold 2 weeks ago for $1650 but I missed it by 3 hours!!! Make sure you get a recent Signature model with the updated tubed output stage. I am receiving the Cary 303/200 this week so I will let you know how they compare.
Metronome any Good?
I have been doing some research on these and they seem like a pretty good buy. Roughly 2k for the cd2v tubed cd player with 192 sampling!
Question is, how does this player stack up against say the Cary 306/200 or the EMC1? It seems that this might be one of the best "SLEEPER BUYS" out there.
Any thoughts on this one? thanks
Oh yeah, I am considering replacing my Meridian 500/Monarchy 18B separates with a one box. Can anyone suggest if the metronome will give me much better sound? Any other suggestions? I am looking for a warm/rich cd player. thanks again
