powerav Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Looking at getting one of these integrated amps, they both have HT Bypass which is crucial and priced similar. Any thoughts or experiences on either or which way to go?
Janjuggler Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Hi If possible try to get a 'loaner' of both to try at home and see which you think suits your needs best.... JJ

powerav Posted April 21, 2017 Author Posted April 21, 2017 I suppose if someone has a Creek Evo 2 or similar I'd be very interested
Citroen Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 I used a 740A for a quite few years, running Wharfedale Opus 1 speakers. Great treble and mids, bass OK Loved it, until I got some Plinius gear.
Hi-Fi Whipped Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Creek Evo 2 on the bay at the moment for what appears to be a good price. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/CREEK-EVOLUTION-2-AMPLIFIER-50-OFF-/222470741592?hash=item33cc4a1e58:g:U-cAAOSwAANY7L4H
Jim Cleary Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 I have a creek Evo 2 amp and think it is great.I purchased it 2nd hand. The headphone output has a little white noise in it though. The amp on ebay mentioned above is from a very good Hi Fi shop local to me that has closed recently. Good luck

blakey72 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Cambridge goes very well with Richter. Had a 740a running with Wizard Mk1's. Great match.
powerav Posted April 21, 2017 Author Posted April 21, 2017 (edited) I can throw the Music Fidelity M3i and Arcam A28 into the mix now. OR just go nuts and get a Music Fidelity M6i Edited April 21, 2017 by powerav
powerav Posted April 24, 2017 Author Posted April 24, 2017 Ended up getting the Creek Evo 2, excited and nervous about it, let the games begin. 1
