Primaluna EVO 400 vs. stock Cary SLP-05 preamp?


I was considering the Cary Ultimate upgrade ($1600) for my SLP-05 preamp, but never did it. Now upgradeitis has me considering the Primaluna EVO 400 preamp as a replacement. Does anyone think that there would be a noticeable improvement with the EVO 400?

"...Have you compared the Cary linestage to any other premaps (such as arc ref6, vac renissance mk v etc)?..."

I have a Cary SLP98 F1 and a couple of Audio Research pre amps. The AR preamps were a bit dryer than the Cary. It would depend on your system and likes to which you would prefer.
