How do the Creek Evos sound?
I am considering the offer in superfi of Creek Evo ampd and CDP for 745. I have managed to listen ot an Audiolab setup (8000S and CDE) but they were a bit bright, I like my music laid back and warm.
I currently have NAD 352 and 542 and AE Aelite 2 speakers so would consider the Creeks as an upgrade. I have also hear cyrrus abnd they are not to my taste either. So, has anyone heard the evos and do you have an opinion before I search out somewhere for a demo?
Thanks for the reply. I will seek out a demo. Do you think they will sit well with the Aelite 2's as my budget will be well and truly broken if I decide they are for me.
They should be fine. The Aelite Twos aren't the most agile with low-frequencies, however, so they're not going to help the slightly mild Creeks' rock any harder. Make sure you're using decent stands/rack to wring the best tautness and low-end performance out of your system.
Enjoy!
The Creek Evos are superb,excellent value for money,great build quality personally i'd go for some epos 12.2 to match with them.
I'm afraid any speaker upgrade will have to wait for a bit. I have decent stands and I am running Chord carnival silver speaker wire and Van Den Hul The Name interconnects so I think I should be ok. Thanks again for the replies.
yeb, apart from slightly forward treble but that only add to excitement unlike the older creek which a bit lacking in that department.
Hello I just wondered if you bought the Creek Evo yet and what do you think?

That's a good deal considering the original price was £1000 for the pair.
We tested them together back in January 2006, when we described them as offering precise detailed delivery. They're a gentler listen than the Cyrus', if less pacy and not such good all-rounders.
Definitely worth an audition - as is any four-star product.
