Go for the Cary 303/100. I replaced my Rega Planet 2000 and never looked back. Very revealing and wide soundstage. The bass extension is just amazing.
next upgrade for cdp
So I have got my 555es sacd player. I am happy with it but planning my next upgrade. I have come up with 3 options:
1. Mod the 555es through sacdmods.com or some other means.
2. Invest in an outboard DAC-namely bel canto or scott nixon tube+ dac. I am just wondering if I will still be able to play SACD's?
3. Sell the 555es and get a used cary 303/100 or 308?
I am looking for a slightly warmer presentation as I listen to a lot music from the 70's and 80's. Redbook for that period is a bit digital. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks.
