Brett Rudolph from Enjoy the Music reviews the DMC-600SE digital music center.
“This is one of those reviews where the end of the review is bittersweet. It seemed like a week instead of a few months since the equipment first arrived. As the equipment was being packed and ready to ship, it seemed that another whole binder of material surfaced just waiting to be evaluated using the DMC-600SE, but alas, that was not to happen. It was nice to start to hookup the next piece of equipment, but sad to see this particular piece return to the company especially since had the monetary resources been available, it would definitely had made a welcome addition to my reference system.
That said, nothing is perfect and the DMC-600SE is no exception. Although these might not be considered flaws, they certainly detracted from an otherwise exceptional example of what synergy between vacuum tubes, transistors and computer chips These included a lack of network connectivity, the lack of ability to connect mobile devices directly and the loud click when it locked on Bluetooth sources. At the beginning of this review, there were many others, but as I finished the review a new firmware released addressed them.
Of course, nothing of this caliber comes without a price and the cost of owning your own Cary Audio DMC-600SE is $8000. It is definitely out of many people’s price range, but for those that can afford the price it is well worth the investment. Especially for those audiophiles who are looking to get the most out of their CD collection, want the ability to stream high resolution material from their computer or have mobile devices they want exceptional performance.”
