Cary Audio

Since 1989


Cary Audio has certain criteria that have guided us since we began and are still our primary focus. We firmly believe in high-performance products that offer incredible value for the money, backed by superior engineering and design, and supported by exceptional customer service. Whether a headphone amplifier or a world-class network audio player, Cary Audio uses the highest quality components available within the audio circuit, resulting in extraordinary sound quality.

Two of the most important events in our 30 year history was the creation, in 1989, of the CAD-300SE. The CAD-300SE was a single-ended, Class A, zero feedback triode amplifier. And in 1992, the creation of the CAD-805. The CAD-805 has long been considered the Grand Master of the Cary Audio sound and is still in production to this day. The distinguishing characteristics of our sound are the ease, warmth, and sheer emotion the music will have on you, the listener.


"If you are looking for an absolutely stellar tube driven preamplifier and want the biggest bang for the buck you simply cannot beat the SLP-98P without spending double the money or more and even then I would not bet against this preamplifier being out performed at even at the increased cost."

Since its inception in 1989, Cary Audio has always held quality and performance as our primary objectives. We began building high quality two channel tube components, and as the years progressed, we have branched out into areas such as solid state home theater, and digital source components. Our Classic line is where you will find our tube based products as well as solid state amplifiers, digital to analog converters and a headphone amplifier.
