Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ?

I have a older pair jeff roland model 6 monoblocks and think I will hang on to them for quite some time.

Pair of McIntosh MC75's.

Counterpoint Natural Progression Series.

I love the sound of my Cary SLA 70A Signature Class A PP EL34 amp with Mundorf Silver/Gold coupling and Elna Silmic bypass caps. It easily surplanted a Krell KSA-50 I had which was grainy as hell and actually generated more heat than the Cary. There's nothing like tubes if you want to enjoy reproduced music.

I'd hold onto this amp even if I upgraded, but I see no reason for that at the moment.

Audion Golden Dream 300B PSET monoblocks. And quite possibly my Audion Black Shadow 845 SET monoblocks as well. Little known both, but infused by exemplary musicality.

I'll also add: McIntosh MC1201 monoblocks.
