Anybody remember G.A.S.


A company from the seventies?

We have the new Ampzilla 2000 monoblocks in our store. They are truly awesome amps, worthy of the Ampzilla name.
Fond memories of my G.A.S. I first tried a Son of Ampzilla used from a dealer (80 Watts) to replace my Carver (500 Watts) amp. Let me tell you, the Son blew away the Carver in both sonics and power!! I then bought the Ampzilla to run my sub. Overall, I think the Son sounded better and was more reliable.
Everyone here knows I am a h/k Citation nut. The Citation 16A is my favorite amp of all time, besting my McIntosh MC-2300 in the sonics department. However, I have been listening to an old G.A.S Grandson amplifier that I have had for years and never really gave it serious listen too. Hooked into my main system (replacing the 16A) everyone in my household, (especially me) is floored at this little guy. Bass slam, dynamics, super deep/wide sound-stage, it's unbelievable! This sounds like a tube amp on steroids, it's so liquid. I am not sure that I am gonna go back to Citation. I don't know where all this thunder is coming from, it has only 40 wpc, 4 dinky output transistory, two puny 10,000 microfarad caps, but ONE enormous transformer. I can't believe how good, how powerful it sounds. It is reminding me quite a bit of a Krell KSA 50 (my favorite Krell of all time). Anyone else here use G.A.S. or is familiar with Grandson? There is not a lot of info out there.
