The SLP-05 is a tremendous preamp. I had this, along with the V12 monoblocks running into Sonus faber Guarneri mementos. One fabulous sounding system.
My only caveat was with the headphone section. I was a bit thin and lacked bass. If you are not going to use it as a headphone amp, then this is a moot point. Overall, one great product.

There is something about a two way speaker. I would love to hear the Evo's. Did you ever get a chance? Mike |

Mike.......I have not auditioned the Evolution or the Futura yet. I have been so happy with the Anniversario's sound and integration into the room since dialing them into the studio with your help that I simply do not have the desire to audition anything new.
I don't want to drift too far off Mark's original post since it is Cary he seeks help with.

Yes, indeed. I think the Cary SLP-05 with the Classe amps and Salon 2 speakers would be excellent. The TAS reviewer even said some tubes in the preamp would be nice with the CA-M600's. I agree.

Thanks! It was quite amazing sounding...when it was working. Those V12 amps were tough to keep going, and it seemed I was always having tube problems. Went from that system to my current McIntosh electronics, and although a bit less warm and voluptuous, the sound is quite wonderful and a LOT more reliable.

I think the Cary SLP-05 is a stellar pre-amp!
