It's just that Mick hasn't heard the best of them by comparison with his fave brand!
Have you arranged to visit Ash & Mart yet? No, I thought not.........

Shaun,
The only sure way to know if the 8000Q is better than your passive Creek is to hear it in your system. As an Audiolab dealer for many years, I am not certain it will be.
Another option for you to consider is the Croft new basic pre at £350, Shit styling but stunning sound and a great MM phono stage thrown in. Well worth a listen.
hi Shaun, fair comment about the DIY aspect - it is always hard wielding a soldering iron for the first time! as to the cost, you would be looking at £100 tops, including a very nice case. The LDR is simple and uses few components.
Or, you could buy a pre-assembled one like this..
for about £150 from here...
