Is Levinson 39 better than Cary 330/300

Would like to know if anyone has experience with either of these two cd players? The price of a used 39 is about the same as a new Cary 330/300. Which one is a better cd player?

no experience with the levinson.However, i have the new CARY 306 SACD.It is much better than the 303/300 on redbook playback.Fyi there is no 330/300....assuming you ment to say 303/300.

It's best to audition these players and let your ears decide......hope this helps

IMO the redbook playback is equal to the best players/DACS.The SACD playback is equal to my analog frontend.(regap9/ruby3/ph302).The deciding factor being the quality of the recording.

If you go over to the audio asylum website there are 5-6 reviews.It is unamiously praised as the best digital frontend that these new owners have heard.

It is definatley worth auditioning if you are looking for a new digital source.....Cary website has all the specs....
