Chinook vs AR PH5/6


I've got a Manley Chinook home on demo. I like it, but feel like it's resolution may nto be quite what I was hoping for. I would buy the Manley new, but would consider used, and am wondering hw the AR PH5 or PH6 would compare. I have looked through a lot fo posts/reviews, but have not seen this comparison. thnx.

I take nothing away from the Chinook...but the Allnic is in another league!!! Very fast, detailed, transparent with tight articulate bass...I'm loving it! Just my first impressions I'm sure it will get better.

Honest...It's worth the extra $800...believe me ;D
You can't go wrong with the Chinook...I let a friend borrow mine last weekend and he immediately text me about buying it!!! Of course it was fully broken in as well. And I got full retail for it...how about that;D. Best phono under 3K in my opinion. Good Luck!
Hey Guys...I have a Allnic H-1201(black) on the way, will be here Saturday and can't wait to fire that baby up!!! After reading the glowing reviews I had to order one. I'm having withdrawal pains I haven't listen to any vinyl in a week!
Yes Minor I agree...All components are system dependent therefore try before buy is always best...!
A Great choice Honest...!!! You won't have a problem with matching a cart to it and the sound will get better & better with a little patience. Hope you enjoy it for a long time and if you ever need service EveAnna and Paul are a delight to deal with. I have they're Reference reissue preamp...It's killer!!!
