Speakers for creek 4330

Jonathans, I also have a 4330 in one of my systems. It is an absolutely wonderful little integrated amp. It will allow you to enjoy even the most demanding monitor if you have, as you describe, a small room. You should spend as much as you can to get the most accurate speakers within your budget. They are the most important component in your system. I presently use the Harbeth Compact 7ES monitors with the big brother Creek 5350SE. In a small room the 4330 will drive them. My present room is small as well, and they are very close to the wall and sound wonderful. You cannot hardly go wrong with most any of the "BBC" monitors that have a heritage of use in studios for sound mixing. They include Harbeth, Spendor, Rogers, B&W, etc... They all make very small to large monitors. If these are beyond your budget look at the PSB line, I have had good luck with them as well. And please, please look in the future to taking advantage of the pre-out on the 4330 and add a good powered subwoofer. You can make a really good move here, my friend. Good luck. Charlie

The B&W speakers I listed are all bookshelf speakers. I have owned them all and they were fine close to the wall.

I use Totem Arros with mine-they are slim floor standers which can palced near the wall and take up very little space and sound great.

I love your little integrated amp and own the SE version. Here is the straight dope-buy Spendors!

I used to own a Creek 4240SII a while back. I mated that integrated, which had an amazingly good MM/MC circuit, with a pair of Spica TC 50's. If you can find a used pair, the company no longer exists, you will not be let down.
