All prices shipped lower 48 - Pictures added (sorry for the blur on the Creek, I can redo if needed)

1. Creek OBH-9 Moving Coil - NEW IN BOX - $185

2. Parasound P/PH 100 MM/MC - 9/10 - $old - big poppa

3. Rotel RQ970BX MM/MC - 9/10 - $old - greg

All have original boxes / manuals (I'll have to locate the Parasound box, it's here somewhere). Cleaning house for the 'big' one, more deals to come.

Thanks for looking.

Cheers,
Russ

    Russ, you tell me, what I am going to prefer?

    I have a TT and a ton of vinyl, but the Dodd has no phono in.

    Would I prefer?;
    1) One of your phono pres?
    2) Adding a phono stage into the Dodd per Gary's advice?

    1) I'm the cheap option. Don't get me wrong, they are great phono stages, but far from world class. Inexpensive option, to start spinning records, and get decent sound.

    2) Gary would be more expensive, but you'd be Ronco'd on the phono stage. His phono stage is world class. Take this option if you want to get serious about vinyl.

    That helped a lot, didn't it?

    Loads, but how would you know what I would actually prefer anyways?

    I'll think on it and maybe one of yours can be a temporary before a more permanent option. Besides, I have no idea if the TT I have is any good at all.

    This is a GREAT way to get into vinyl without breaking the bank. All are pretty highly regarded entry level phono stages.

    The Rotel is very tempting. But I just picked up beardogs RT35i's. If it's still around in a couple of weeks I might have to get it. I have about 200 albums that I haven't listened to in years.

    If you know you want it in 2 weeks, say the word, you can have it in 2 weeks broham.

    Pics added.

    I'll box her up big poppa. I assume your addy from the last shipment is still current - I'll have her out in the next 2 days on the FedEx Chevy panel van.

    It has an IEC power cord connector, do you want me to throw a generic cord in the box?

    Cheers,

    RuSs,

    Dont have any extra chords laying around right now, so a generic would be fine for now. Yep, same addy, not going anywhere for at least a while.

    Well, I obviously saw this thread too late to do me any good.

    Creek is still available, it's probably the best of the 3.

    No doubt, just a bit more than the cheap ole man should be dropping for one right now.
