Amp for Dynaudio C1 Mcintosh 402 or Cary CAD 500?
McIntosh 402 is not a god match for the Cary SLP due to its input impedence of 10,000 ohms (unbalanced)20,000 ohms (balanced)Cary CAD 500 is however a perfect match is you can find one for sale. They are getting harder and harder to find on the Agon. 
what happened to Cary 500MB?
McCormicks Input Imp is a little too low for the SLP's output Imp of 400ohms. there will be some bass rolloff. There are several threads that discuss this in more detail than this, actually, check this out http://www.stereophile.com/tubepreamps/90...

my vote is for the Cary also. I sold the Cary last year and bought a Spectron. The spectron did not work out and ended up buying another Cary. 
Amp upgrade for Paradigm Studio 60 v5
anthems, they were made for the paradigms. 
Paradigm Studio 60 v5 somewhat boomy
What amp are you using? 
Aura Note - why such low resale?
Economics 101 , Demand and Supply = increase or decrease in price. 
Which Preamp will go well with Mag 3.6R ?
Jonk78, not sure how u going to find a used one. u may end up buying a brand new second mono. 
New spreakers sound great But
Don't think it is a worthless question. The man just bought a new pair of speakers, the room size is not going to change, the speaker location may change but not improve bass significantly, bass extention can be adjusted bass on what sub he gets.q...
