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

spectron musician 3 mk2... WOW! to my ears, it just does everything sooooo right.

Threshold SA3, 50 watts of pure class A bliss with just a couple of simple mods. But sold it in the 90's and still regreting it.

Have had many amps. ML, Plinus, ARC, VAC, Threshold, and a few others. Have found audio heaven with the Cary 211M ANV custom built to order by Cary with mundorf silver/oil caps, teflon tube sockets, silver cryo treated fuse holders all put together with Cardas silver/cooper solder. Unbeleiveably musical, one of its kind and a keeper.

I've had my absurdly heavy ARC VT-130SE for 15 years. If I tried lifting it off its stand to deliver it to a prospective buyer, that effort might just do me in. So this amp might qualify by default.

To most, nothing special, but for me, My PS Audio GCA amplifiers, are ALL I need.
GCA-500
GCA-250

Somehow, the "gain-cell" technology, delivers power

that,at least the 2 models I own, are Both, STABLE

to 1 ohm regardless the speaker.(I tried) Also; Both
Delivering The very Best "FIRST!" Watt, from an amplifier. IMHO.

If the first watt, is garbage, what follows, won't be ANY,

Better. Just Louder.

They are cool running, 24/7/365 never off.

Never ANY problems at ALL.

Don't draw huge electricity.

Paul should be very Proud.

I Love Music!
