As I wrote before, I have had the 308-T, 306-200 and now the 303-300. There are several differences I hear (and prefer) in the 303-300:
- more localization of bass in the soundfield (I can tell where
instruments are placed in the orchestra)
- the soundstage is deeper, wider and taller
- the sound flows, that is the music will swell, blend, billow up,
fill out the room (like a real ensemble)
- the interplay of instruments allows the blending of timbres,
textures, melodies to be more prominent
- the sound is more palpable, weightyAs I said, I only use the balanced outputs and the tubes are on. I don't care for the sound of the solid state output.
The 303-300 starts to get the music right in the way that an analog system can. Granted, there is still digititis in recordings (glare in high frequency).
Note too that I listen to quite a few HDCD's. The decoding is different in the 306-200 and the 303-300.
As others have said, this is all about preferences and synergy. My tastes may not be your cup of tea.
Above all else ...
Enjoy the music.
