Cary SLP-05 vs Ultimate CAT Renaissance So, nobody had a chance to hear both of these two great preamp and has an opinion to share? | |
upsampling DACs I am second for MSB. | |
Audio Research LS 26 or Cary SLP 05? You can not compare SLP-05 with SLP-98 - I had both in my room - they are just not in the same league. | |
Help My Rel has gone berserk I had similar problem with my Rel Storm III. Had many long phone discussions with dealer (SUMIKO). Finally they identified the problem as grounding mismatch with my amplifier, and suggested to connect third cable of high level connection to amplif... | |
Audio Research LS 26 or Cary SLP 05? 100% agree with Baggs1.Both preamps are great and have distinctive "house" sound - you do not have to auditioned them A to B - they sound so differently. It is a matter of taste and the rest of the system. I got SLP-05 and very happy with it | |
Cary SLP 98L or deHavillanrd Mercury 3? I am second for SLP-05; it is one of the best tube preamp.It appears at Audiogon from time to time. SLP98P not even close. | |
MSB Xport upgrade The only reason for me to have Xport upgrade is to feed MSB DAC with Hi-Rez signal (SACD and DVD-A), so I need DVD player to use as transport only - this upgrade replaces all the audio processing in the player and completely replaces the clocks an... | |
Preamp for my system...Please I am third for Cary SLP-05 - terrific preamplifier, warm and musical, very convenient HT pass-through - it works even when preamp is turned off. | |
MSB Xport upgrade I just got MSB Platinum DAC III and need a player as a transport to upgrate it with Xport. I'd like to be able to play CD, SACD and DVD-A as well. MSB says - "This upgrade replaces all the audio processing in the player and completely replaces the... | |
Hi End Pre-Amp shoot out in central jersey? Hi, Ron!I live in Basking Ridge, and would like to take a part of the event, but I think that my Cary SLP-05 is not on the level you are interested in.Thank you.Boris. | |
Seeking suggestions for Preamp I am second for Cary SLP-05 - I think it is exactly what you are looking for. I do not like ARC either, but SLP-05 with NOS tubes in my system sounds exactly as you describes - "something romantic and a bit bloomy, but NOT noisy and very extended"... | |
Please suggest good balanced Preamp Cary SLP-05 is outstanding preamplifier. | |
ARC LS26 versus Cary SLP-05 Both of them are great preamplifier, and have their own house sound. I had a chance to compare LS-17 and Cary SLP-98 "A" to "B", and found ARC sound a little bit dry and analytical to my taste, Cary is more sweet. I ended up with Cary SLP-05 from ... | |
Little bit "forward" sound - what cables to avoid? I guess I did not make myself clear - my fault, sorry.Anyway thanks everybody for trying to help.Boris. | |
Little bit "forward" sound - what cables to avoid? Thank you, Tvad.Once again, I am not looking for a way to fix forward sound, it is not a problem. I just want to get better cables, and asking if there are cables that potentially can make it a real problem. If cables have nothing to do with that ... |
