AXPONA 2010 Coverage

March 8, 2010
The Cary Room

Cary showed two systems at AXPONA. the first was built around their Xciter 5 watts/channel integrated tube amplifier ($2,750) and 24-bit/192kHz USB DAC ($1,499) I was so impressed with from CEDIA last year, a Cary DVD8 universal player, and the brand new Sur by Jose single driver speakers ($2,000) which acquitted themselves quite well in a rather large room.

The Danish System Audio Explorer speakers ($4,500) were featured with a bevy of Cary equipment at the other end of the room.

The Cary CD 306 SACD ($8,000) was seen in several rooms at the show.

The analog source was an Acoustic Solid Royal turntable ($12,000) and Shelter Harmony MC cartridge ($5,300).

Cary supplied its new PH 302 MkII MM/MC phono preamp ($3,500) and SLP-05 line level preamp ($8,000).

The power amps were Cary’s CAD211 Founder’s Edition monoblocks ($20,000).
