House sound of CARY vrs AYRE?

Can anyone explain the difference in the sound quality of top end machines from Ayre and Cary.

I'm looking for a high quality cd/sacd player, with a lush, detailed, and dynamic wide soundstage. If any of you have comared players from both companies would appreciate your comments.

Will be replacing an Arcam fmjcd23. Running a Roland integrated with Dynaudio c1 signatures.

Thanks

Thanks so much for your detailed response. Very helpful!

I now own the Arcam FMJ cd23. Have had it for many years and enjoy it immensely. But it is getting long in tooth, and I am thinking seriously of upgrading. I do tend to listen for long periods, and have never tired of the Arcam.

But I am intrigued, and feel I should replace for something new. Don't know how much longer the Arcam will last. Trying to get closer to an analog sound which is why I was looking at Ayre. The reviews look quite good. Stereophile seems to love em......

Heading to Europe, and hope to listen there. Some very good shops in London. Heard about a German brand T+A, which is now available Stateside. But will probably keep it narrowed down to Ayre or Cary.

Know anything about EMM scad?

Thanks again
