Personal amp evolution


Seeing the over night success of the speaker evolution thread, it may be interesting to see what type of amp(s) we have all run. Same deal as the other thread-we will sort of create a puzzle of our systems you'll have to visit multiple threads to put everything together!!! ;)
For me I started:
Adcom GFA-565 monoblocks
Rotel RB-990bx
Jeff Rowland Design Group Model 5
Balanced Audio Technology(BAT) VK-60

either a CAT JL2, BAT VK-75se or Tenor 75Wp on the horizon.

Vector Research 9000
Yamaha RX777
Parasound HCA-1500
Pair of Parasound HCA-2200II
Odyssey Stratos Extreme Monoblocks
I love the Odysseys, may try the JC-1 next year.
Started with a Yamaha 200wpc beast that promptly blew up after one hour of playback! The dealer then set me up with an Adcom GFA-555 which was stable and sounded great. I then moved on to a Musical Design D-150. After that, I purchased my first pair of BEL mono-blocks. They were Mk IVs. Now I've upgraded those to Mk V status and bought a few more so I can run full surround. Haven't heard anything better yet.
Just got into separates so my list is short. Yammie HTR5560 Yammie RXv2400 Parasound 2200II and currently drooling over Primare's A30 line.
Way back I started with a harman kardon tube amp, then a fisher tube amp, then nothing for a long time. Then I got back into audio and purchased a Threshold S-150 amp followed by an Audio Research D-125 amp. My current amp is a set of Quicksilver V4's. The system is sounding better then ever. Just a joy.
Yammaha RXV-750 75wpc - Used for 10 years
Denon 4802 125wpc? - Returned after 30 days for refund
Sonic Frontiers PVA-5 125wpc - Still used for center and surround duty in HT
Lexicon NT-512 140wpc - Great amp, but still not what I was looking for. Need to sell soon.
AES-25 Superamp DJH 35wpc push pull. - Now we are getting somewhere.

Next year I might try something with tube rectification.
