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


Just wondering, with this audio merry-go-round of buying and selling, if anyone has an amp that will be a keeper for life. I haven't yet but came verrrry close once...

Meitner STR-50 Plus modded. Or any Meitner 55, 100,101. All meitner amps are the best over all sounding amp ever. Its just a great sounding amp. It sounds as if it has a tube pre section in its sonic presentation. I will never part with my Meitner STR-50 modded. Oh! And I still have a set amp and a Cary and Copland tube amps and Ive had many SS amps but as the SS comes and go the Meitners stay. Just in case you dont think I have auditioned other amps.
Well, this is just my own preference, but I'll never part with my Citation 7.1s. I might add one in fact. The only other amp, in my price range, that I'd like to own is an Aragon. Now if you're asking about price is no object, fantasy amps, that might be a different story... but then again I'll never own those, so I don't usually worry about that.

My Esoteric A100 is quite beautiful. I think I'm gonna keep it a while. My wife just wouldn't understand another amplifier or any piece of gear for that matter as I've told her they were all the best and it was the last (this was usually followed by "it is a once in a blue moon opportunity"). Of course i haven't changed wives so sometimes I mean It.
Enjoy your listening!
