Anybody have some experience with Bedini amps?

Very sorry to see Bedini gone. I recently demoed my 25/25 feeding Linn Isobariks to a friend and then came online to see if we could find a fair priced 25/25 for him, but no luck. He'll keep looking from his end, including coming here. I, too, will not be selling my 25/25, purchased new in 1986 and still performing flawlessly. What a wonderful instrument it has been.

I have had a 25 25 in & out of my system for almost 30 years. it has never failed to impress & has never once required service. (It does run hot around 140 degrees at the heat sinks! )
I have heard rumblings that Bedini amplifiers were not necessarily the most consistent amplifiers made, for various reasons. My amp simply sounds Great ( I am in the industry & have had literally dozens of amps roll through the system over the years, but the 25/25 sounds as relevant today as ever & even amazes new visitors to the room on a weekly basis.)
Perhaps a bit of a cautionary used purchase ( I'd advise hearing one in your system first. ) My experience has been nothing but wonderful !(it's back to being the main amp with a very current Meridian front end)
(speakers powered over the years include, various Acoustats, various Apogees, Eminent technologies and the occasional Quad on the planar front, Shaninian's, Energy Veritas, Mirage M1's, currently driving Canton's Reference 7.2, & many more boxes in-between.

Has anyone been in touch recently with John and Gary? Is that it? Is Bedini gone for good?

I, for one, would be interested in a in a new 100 or 150 w/ch. amp and would put down a deposit in a flash! If Misters Bedini are reading this: How about it, guys?

Any news about Gary Bedini?

Hi Breezer, there's been many threads about the demise and disapperance of Bedini, as an electronics company. Google him, and he's doing some kind of electronic battery company now. (sorry I couldn't find the saved link) but it's on one of these threads...
