Creek 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 history of the company is a long and interesting one. The first product, the iconic CAS4040
integrated amplifier, was released in the UK in 1982. Throughout the following 29 years, Creek
products have gone from strength to strength - and whilst moving with the times, the company
remains dedicated to two channel audio.
As prices and production costs had risen considerably since the turn of the century, it had long
been Mike's desire to recapture that part of the budget market that his products had served so
well in his early years.
With this in mind he had set up an office in China in late 2004, to investigate the possibilities of
manufacturing in that country. With his own staff in place, extensive research was undertaken
and an allegiance was formed with one of the country's specialist high quality manufacturers.
With extensive Creek input into the designs and Creek's own Q.C. staff on hand to oversee
production, the Evolution amplifier and CD player were released in early 2006. An FM/AM tuner
soon followed. With this exciting new range Mike had been able to release the products at prices
to match his very popular 43 series which had been discontinued in 2003.
All products have gone on to capture many awards in several of Creek's international markets. Such
was the quality of product being produced, Creek’s Destiny production was also moved to China.
Today the association between Creek Audio and the company manufacturing its products is a
strong one, with engineers from both the UK and China working together to produce these fine
products. Costs have risen as you would expect, and whilst there will always be cheaper products
emerging from China - not so with Creek. Nothing can be truer than ‘you get what you pay for’.
