dynaudio confidence 5 versus contour S5.4
Keep in mind a sealed in closure will have a tighter quicker bass the a ported design. Again it gets back to personal taste and what type of music you want to reproduce. If you want it close to how it actual sounds the C5 is very very good speaker... 
The new Mcintosh MC 402
Your right, I went and took a listen and purchased it along with the C200 preamp....smile! 
dynaudio confidence 5 versus contour S5.4
C5's are a classic and are near state of the art regardless of price. That is why you rarely see them for sale, I own a pair purchased in 2002, one of the last pair made, the C2, C4, were already on the market.The speaker reproduces music, the bot...

At only $500.00 dollars give lessloss a try, you may in for a pleasant positive surprise. I just recieved my 4th one and connected to my McIntosh MC403 amp and my step improved another notch, I never heard another power cord bring out the best in ... 
Review: Wegrzyn Loudspeaker &Cable Co. Copper Slam Special Edtion Power cord
Your missing out not trying the Lessloss. They are the best out there at a price that is a true bargin. I also have owned Walters power cords and they are fine, the Lessloss is just better in every way and they work as well on front end gear, digt...

You don't know me so don't comment about my motives or me. My wife said she had a Christmas present for me and I was using DCCA at the time, so she was going to order the top of line for me as a future Christmas gift. She went into my audio room ...

Lessloss is a better cord. Santa had a list and checked it twice, and DCCA was taken off the list. Lessloss all the way thanks to my loving wife.Nothing wrong with DCCA, Lessloss sounds better, much, much easier to work with, better connectors, an... 
Review: Lessloss Lessloss Filtering Power Cord Power cord
John, The volume is lower because there is more dynamics, no way is this cable forward. I just orderd 3 more power cords for my A/V gear. This are a stupid bargin for results achieved. Your gear will be at its best when these power cords are used ...

Best CD player now made.
Any Accuphase CD player. Open, Musical with natural detail. Good as analog. I own analog also and this is one of the few CD players I could listen to for a long period of time. 
Cary 306 SACD
Sounds like Cary has quality issues. Same transport as the Sony SCD1 means you be replacing it in a few years, Slide motor will go bad, that is the only problem the SCD1 had. Stick with the major players of digital audio, Sony, Accuphase are the t...

Not all Sony SCD1 had a problem, my does not and another owner I know does not, we switched ac to check, switched sound became dead, no depth and little width. To many rumors not enough fact on the web at times. Also the Sony is balanced.
