Creek OBH 9 MC...is it good?

I don't have Rotel RHQ-10 but I've listen to my friend's setup. He uses Xlo power cord (entire system), vdh db102mkIII i/c and Kimber 8TC spk cable.

According to him the creek is much more transparent. musical and detail than P-75. I don't know....got to find out.

Hi5,What power cord are you using with the Rotel? Speakers/cabling??

The paragraph that I mentioned, forget PE mode..it just like subsonic mode

Moving on to the standard MC setting with a Benz Micro L0.4 on a Roksan Xerxes-RB300, the result was similar to that heard with MM, though comparison showed the Dyna’s advantage in low-level subtle detail retrieval over the Rotel was reduced (the RHQ-10 is more transparent through its MC setting than MM).

However, I felt that the P-75’s sound in both standard modes was slightly short on body. The RHQ-10 produced richer, more fully fleshed out sonic images which, while softer-edged and less detailed, had a truer-to-life density – for example, Luka Bloom’s voice on Fertile Rock appeared that much more like emanating from a real human head, and I felt I heard more of the acoustic guitar’s body’s characteristics. The Rotel also had the edge when it came to sound stage depth and sounding big and bold, if a little fruitier in the lower ranges. Heavy hitting drum work (a swing big band playing Sing Sing Sing) had gutsier thwacks to them.

I've read that particular article a couple of times, and the way i read it was, the guy was saying how the p-75 betters the rotel, and how he was amazed that it did, with the rotel costing so much more.

I just finished the above reading.I use the P-75 with tubes and in its' PE "enhanced" mode.It mates very well with the Shelter 501.The Rotel is more forgiving of poor cartridges,vinyl and associated equipment,though there are better/more costly phono sections available when the power cord is factored in to its' purchase.

Check out this review. RHQ 10 is superior in MC mode than P-75.

cheers

My friend bought the Rotel and have heard it several times.Positively not in the same class as the P-75.

I would have a hard time believing the rotel is superior in any way with the p-75. price maybe, but nothing else.

I heard of it before and in some review they were comparing it with Rotel RHQ 10 and it is superior than P-75. How about Gram Amp 2se?

Any chance you could swing the Dynavector P-75?Have one in-house and it pretty nice.You would never know it was SS.I use it in its' "current" mode.
