"The Chinook, frankly speaking, surprised us. At Manley Labs, they've obviously mastered the technology of tubes and they know what to do with them to let the music sound beautiful and natural, and at the same time the music doesn't suffer from the ills of ‘cheap’ implementations like added warmth, ‘color’ etc.”

Of course, Chinook manages to be even better than we heard here, because the limit was our pickup (and based on this experience, Hana ML is already on the way), but even so, Chinook was one of the best (or rather the most beautiful and most attractive) phono preamps we've ever had the honor with. Great job, great machine..…"
