| Cary CAD-572SE MK2 Buying used helps, you can usually recover your money, if you don't like them. I'm sure your Strauss sound great with all that power. It's just a different sound, with the tubes, that I really like. Not necessarily better than SS. Hopefully you wi... | |
| Cary CAD-572SE MK2 Did I say these amps sound awesome? Even digital sounds good. Don't want to start a flame, I am just very happy with my purchase.thanks for listeningjeff | |
| Cary CAD-572SE MK2 Tom,Was it from a private party or a dealer? I have been doing some searches online and it doesn't seem like there are a lot of options. I am new to tubes, so I may be missing something.thanks,Jeff | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Good afternon Mr.Lugnut, I am very happy to learn that you enjoy some of the same music as I do. I am somewhat envious of you, who wouldn't want to take a listen to the famous Porter Audio System? Albert could probably charge admission. I hope you... | |
| Cary CAD-572SE MK2 My room is approx 14 x 24 and the speakers are on the long wall in the center. I sit 7-8 feet from them and there is a 56" rear projection tv between them. It's a full function system.Jeff | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Hi all,I have been watching this thread for a while and I am really embarrased that I haven't posted until now. I can only hope that I would handle myself any where close to how Pat is. And for the rest of you, I can only feel proud to be in the c... | |

| Cary CAD-572SE MK2 I did receive an extra set of 572's when I received the amps. Dennis Had also mentioned around 9 months would be the anticipated life span of the tubes. He also suggested sending in the amps to be upgraded to a different tube for a $1000. I though... | |
| Cary CAD-572SE MK2 So much for being disappointed. I have done a lot of listening and I now am very pleased with my purchase. These amps are awesome. I think I was trying to play too loud to start with and I think they may have been sitting a while without any play ... | |
| Cary CAD-572SE MK2 I fired them up and listened for only an hour last night so these observations are preliminary. My pre has to be turned up to 110, where it used to be 65 to acheive the same listening level. I don't know how far it goes and if it is harder on the ... | |
| Cary CAD-572SE MK2 Well, after reading your comments, I'm not feeling super about what I have done, but we'll see what happens. I am meeting the seller in a couple of hours to complete the transaction and hopefully will get in a little listening yet tonight. I will ... | |
| Cary CAD-572SE MK2 I meant he had nothing to gain, because I am buying used. | |
| Cary CAD-572SE MK2 John, CableplexI cannot turn back at this point, so I will have to give it a try. I can always resell without much of a loss, if any. Although I am confused as to why Dennis would knowingly tell me something that in your eyes is not true. He had n... | |
| Inexpensive/solid 2-channel amp for rear speakers? Check E-Bay for an old Carver amp, you can usually get these pretty reasonable. I used one until I down sized from 7.1 to 5.1 | |
| Many questions tube/solid state amps KetchupLOL, I have thought many times about the fridge, but then my better half asks me if she can get me anything while she's up. She seems to get up a lot, especially during football season(I watch with no tv sound) |
