Reccomended power cords for Cary gear
I've owned the 303/100 for about a year and a half now and I've tried 3 different pc's.The Virtual Dynamics Audition is the clear winner.Even my non-audiophile friends-come to think of it, that's all my friends-remarked "how much better" my system... 
help with harshness / brightness - cary 303-100

Suggestions on Tube Pre-amp. Please
I have the Rogue 66 Magnum and I'm very pleased with it.If you buy a new one, you will probably want to replace the stock tubes but other than that it's, imho, one of the better values in audio.And yes, customer service is some of the best I've en... 
Do power cords really matter?
