Good day from Ottawa, Canada
I am using my CAP 151 for the past 7 years, withouth a glithch. 2 weeks ago purchased finally my (hopefully not last) CA 2200. I am using preamp side of my CAP 151 but activelly shoping for a new preamp.
Just finished off very thorough audition of some tube preamps, to be on the safe side and not to miss something.....and what to say....Tubes did not work for me. I will stick with classe and am shopoing for either CP 500 or CP 700. I just recently learned of CP 800 which is very interesting to me, because it contains DAC, which would eventualy replace my DAC Magic.
Some guys are mentioning that SSP 600 does not give anything tonally toward CP 500 (how does it compare ot CP 800) and it has a DAC to...
That is to much of information for me to digest right now, and where I live there is not much of a chance to play with classe gear. We even did not have a dealer in Ottawa until last month.
I am not interested in movies, but woudl setle for SSP 600 if it is close tonally to CP 500 or CP 700.
Could you guys please give me some guidance on this, especially if you were lucky to hear above mentioned gear.
Thanks a lot
Sasha
