Your thoughts would be appreciated..


I am running an "upstairs" stereo system - mostly digital source. I have a Creek 5350se driving Soliloquy 6.3's. I am thinking about using the Creek as a pre-amp and picking up a decent used amp in the $800 - $1400 range.

Anyone have thoughts on using the Creek as a pre-amp or suggestions on good used amplifiers in my range?

McCormack DNA 0.5--used should be in your price range. Will sound great & gives a significant upgrade path (through SMCAudio).
Creeks use passive preamplification stage. Therefore it's recommended to find an amp with high input impedance and sensitivity >1V to a full output power.
