ADCOM 555 II and DQ 10's


I have a set of DQ 10's and want to keep them. But all I have to power them is a ADCOM GFA1A, will not do it at the levels I like to listen at. Goes into clip when it is cranked up.

On a tight budget so must buy used Amp in the $400.00 range. Would a ADCOM 555 or 555 II power the DQ 10's?

I listen mainly to rock, but do like classical as well. System is in a soft room, so base is ok with the DQ's.

Thank you for your time, Cuda Ken

Not really good and 2 bridged to 600watts while able to do loud had terrible image collapse.
I had that exact combo DQ-10/555II(s) never sounded good at loud volume. Yamaha preamp may have played a part. Yet the Yamaha running the DQ-10's via a Phase Linear 400 was really amazing loud and low for its time.Can't remember the model preamp to save myself.And that PL-400 well they nicknamed them flame 400's I hear.The DQ-10 shines paired to amps with a lot of dynamic headroom ability.
You'll need decent amount of clean fast power perhaps a used Bryston 4b or McCormack DNA series but even the early used will cost more.Others may post better ideas,good luck
I am running a B&K 4420 with 225 watts/ channel through Vandersteen 2CE sigs. Nice warm amp which sounds great loud with Eagles, Aerosmith, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floy, etc. I saw one today on A-gon for $550. That is what I paid for mine on A-gon.
Thank's for the answer's, sure not what I was hopeing to hear. Seller's all say sure, it will handle the DQ 10's.

OK, let's try it this way. Will the ADCOM 555 or 555 II do better than the GFA1A? This will sound like a qoute from Spinal Tap but with the GFA1A I can not turn the volume up over half way. (God I feel stupid saying it that way)Then they go into thermal over load shut down. Hee, Hee, Hee, will the 555 say go 3/4 of the way? :-)

On the amps you kind people have listed, can you give a idea of what they should sell for? 555's seem to go for around $325-$425 Range. That I might be able to swing.

Bottom line, will the 555 be better that the GFA1A?

Thank You all For Your Time and putting up with my miss spelling.
