About Creek Audio

Creek Audio products are designed by Mike Creek and a team of electronic engineers, who employ the latest CAD technology and sophisticated test equipment to achieve the innovative and astute designs with which Creek is associated.

The first of the Creek amplifiers, the £99 CAS4040, was launched on the UK market in 1982 and created a somewhat mixed response. Praise for its sound quality was tempered with disbelief that a fledgling British Hi-Fi company could be successful taking on the established brands and undercutting their prices.

By 1985, as a result of exceedingly good UK press, export demand accelerated and before long the 4040, along with the newer 4140 and 3040 were selling in 20 countries! In 1995 Creek’s USA distributor Music Hall ordered a miniature vinyl disc amplifier to be made in a small case. Roy Hall, Music Hall’s president, christened it the OBH-8 and from there the OBH range increased to include phono pre-amps, headphone amps, remote-controlled pre-amps, plus a 24 bit D to A converter.
1998 was an exceptional year for Creek Audio Systems. The 4330 integrated amplifier was voted‘ Budget Component of the Year’ by the acclaimed U.S. magazine Stereophile. The novel T43 AM/FM Tuner received What Hi-Fi’s ‘Best Buy’ award in August 1998. In France, the CD43 CD Player, with 24Bit DAC, received the ‘Diapason D’Or’ award for the CD Player of the Year and the P43 pre-amplifier, A52SE amplifier and OBH-12 preamplifier received 5 Star reviews in Hi-Fi Choice and What Hi-Fi.

In the last twenty years Creek Audio has gone from strength to strength releasing the Classic, Destiny and Evolution ranges to world-wide acclaim. Throughout the years, Mike Creek has not wavered from his basic product design philosophy. The products have a simple uncluttered design brief, exhibit technical sophistication, feature State of the Art electronics, are designed for people who love music and are minimalist in operation.
