It seems your Creek is the limiting factor in your system. Looking at the measurements section of the Stereophile review, http://stereophile.com/integratedamps/107creek/index4.html it would be the equivalent of trying to evaluate the quality of the optics, in different binoculars, when viewing both through a dirty window. I would patch out of the Creek to a better quality amp, and redo the comparison. This would probably reveal greater differences, but still may not be significant enough to justify the increased cost. The other thing that bothers me is that your speakers put a crossover at 2200hz, right at the most sensitive area of human percetpion. Not good IMHO. -- konut ------------------------------------------------------------------------ konut's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1596 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75447
