Experience the legendary Cary Audio sound with the CAD-300SEI — a masterpiece of Single-Ended Triode (SET) tube amplification. Designed for those who demand purity and realism, this amplifier operates in pure Class A, using a single 300B power tube per channel to reproduce music with extraordinary warmth, detail, and harmonic richness. While modest in power output at 15 watts per channel, its sonic performance surpasses many higher-powered designs, especially when paired with efficient loudspeakers.
Every note emerges from an exceptionally quiet background, allowing the smallest nuances and spatial cues to shine through with lifelike clarity. The CAD-300SEI’s handcrafted construction ensures superior channel balance, transparency, and musical engagement, turning every listening session into a deeply emotional experience. Its ability to reveal subtle timbral differences — from a Stradivarius violin to a Fender guitar — demonstrates the true art of tube engineering.
Discover the timeless beauty of SET amplification with the CAD-300SEI. Available through MGY OÜ, the official distributor of Cary Audio in the European Union.
