Anyone compared Whest Audio with Manley Steelhead?


I have the Whest PsU .20 phonostage that sounds great, considering it costs $2,600. Wonder if it is worth upgrading to the Steelhead as there are used ones in the market.

>>but sonically, i don't hear much difference<<

I suggest you upgrade your system or make an appointment with an audiologist. The Dynavector is a cute piece but soncially, levels below the Steelhead, Whest, and Trumpet.
I have actually heard the Whest and P-75 in my system. Note that I use a dynavector XV-1s cartridge so all comparisons were with the P-75 in PE mode which sounded easily the best loading.
The P-75 was in the same league to the Whest or my Pass Xono.
The P-75 was as quiet as a tomb, the whest was not)and the music was slightly richer in comparison to the Whest. The Whest really did not impress me much considering the ravbes and the price difference to the P-75. If I did not have the Xono now I would gladley own the P-75 and save myself some serious cash.
The Whest is no better built than the P-75.
Must be a deficient component(s) in your system if the Dyna sounds as good as the Whest.
i agree, downunder, i was very impressed with the p-75, i think the silence and clarity of it, comes from the unique power supply, from what i've read anyway, but the most important think is it sounds awesome.
btw downunder, nice system, i enjoyed looking at your pictures, i am definately not seeing too many deficiencies in there !!
