RE: Probably not good enough to notice 0.0002% THD and IMD ;-)

The main reason I no longer have the Cary SLP-05 and the pair of Manley Neo-Classic 250 monoblocks is because of physical size, weight, and heat. I setup a new rack at our previous home and the Cary was rather tall and wouldn't fit quite right. Similar constraints with the large Manleys.

And that was BEFORE we moved to our new place and my audio system was relegated to the home office. Since finishing the basement in our new place a couple years ago I would have more than sufficient space again but I continue to enjoy a somewhat minimalist compact system.

I liked the 6SN7 sound in the Cary but it was quite different in the Schiit Freya+. But I think Cary is known for their more 'tubey' sound in general.

I'm trying to be nice by not participating much in Inmate Central. My posts are often deleted in that right-leaning echo chamber anyway ;-)

Hope you start feeling much better.
