This amp has been around for ages, writes Hi-Fi i Muzyka magazine, but still the award we decide to give is not a ‘lifetime achievement’ or ‘perseverance’ award. This is a wonderful (and careful) remake of a classic amp to make it sound more dynamic and open with a newly designed power supply (solid state). So this is next generation integrated from Cary Audio and it deserves the coveted Product Of the Year award!
With lower negative feedback (–4 dB) and new power supply the amp has improved in clarity while preserving this magical palpable stereo soundstage, immediacy and delicacy of its renowned predecessor.
