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.

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 !!
Thanks Readster, As I said I have actually listened to the P-75 in my current system. Nothing to be ashamed of owning one ( especially if you own a dyna cartridge), the Whest in my opinion is not worth the money.
OTOH, I would luv to hear a manley Steelheard.

Judy, have you actually heard any of the phono stages you are offering worldly advise on??
