Forte Model 55 Amp

had mine for about 12 years or so myself....blows away krell and others for 5 times as much...incredible depth , sweetness, bass....i have a virtually new krell kav250a...was bought aas a backup...never use it...can't listen to it after the 55....was a great idea to make threshold equipment for the masses /affordable, but alas, it really didn't work...great little amp!!! like a 55 chevy in primer gray that wipes up a tthe track....

To resurrect this thread a little. I own Forte 55 #055195 that I bought new in 1997 replacing a Hafler DH-200 I built in 1982. I must admit I didn't know a great deal about high-end equipment at the time but I recognized the Threshold/Pass connection. I have really enjoyed this amplifier. I use it to run some Polk SDA 2.3 speakers. It has been to the tech only once after it recently lost one of the bridge rectifiers; not bad for 17 years of service.

I loved that amp, but it had to go to make way for a tube amp...a clean and musical powerhouse of an amp, and a really appealing look.

I have a Forte Model 55 I may be willing to sell. Any interest?

I might be interested if you are still willing to sell . . .
