Manley 300B or Manley Steelhead


I just received my Manly Neo-Classic SE/PP 300B amps. Love them. Clearly a step up from my previous Rega Elicit integrated.

I am planning to purchase my preamp later this month. I am thinking of either a Manley 300B pre or a Manley Steelhead. I do listen to some vinyl but the majority of my listening is digital.

I guess I am asking: How good is the linestage of the Steelhead versus the 300b?

Awesome setup @stevecham , you should start a Virtual System here to show it off! I’d love to hear a Steelhead someday.

But also, this be a 6-year old thread resurrection, and I can’t help but grin & grimace at the thought of the op’s poor Steelhead hooked up to a bloody Project Debut III! That table’s not even close to worthy of an $800 cartridge, much less an $8K phono stage. I hope the op fixed that mismatch quickly!
