I came across this mid 80's Creek 404s2 amp yesterday on my way to work. I did not know anything about Creek but realized that this little amp was designed and built in England. I knew it would be worth while.
The 4040s2 is rated at 30 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 40 watts per channel into 4 ohms, there is a large toroidal transformer with two 6800uf caps, this unit states that it has 11 amps of back up power for peak music.
I have only had about 30 minutes of time with this unit playing through the Visonik Euro 7's, Tannoy Oxford Gold's and the B&W D5's and wow! does this little unit sound open and transparent.
I will run this unit soon with the Mission 770 Freedom IV's and the Celestion Ditton 110's soon.
There will be more to come in the future on this amazing little amp.

ReplyDeleteThank you Dave, This little amp sounds better than my Myryad T-40 and my Rotel RA-840BX.
