CD Player into amp?


I would like to run my Cary CD301 stright into an amp -- ARC Classic 30, CJ MV50, 52, 55. I have read that performance is cleaner. What are the downsides? Appreciate your input/comments. Thanks Dave

I had an early 90`s top of the line ($1500) Yamaha CD player with it`s own volumn control, I was able to run it directly into an my Classic 120`s.

BUT your CD player must have a volumn control,(this player did)otherwise your sound would be at full volumn and probably self destruct the whole system.

You are by-passing the pre-amp and extra connections,(IC`s)and the sound is a lot more revealing in every way, except that it then revealed even more, all the hash and grit and robotic sound that is CD.
