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...

Yeah Pavpet, what's up?
I was set on the Ruby 300Bs till I read your posts...
I have two very different keepers for life.
My Carver 4.0T amp and my aragon 8008BB. both are still operating and sound good with the right speakers.I am surprised that I did not see anyone else mention Aragon.
The newest Aragon 8008(Indy Audio Labs)(DEALER DEMO)and just for the synergy of the pair, the Audible Illusions M3a (FACTORY REFURB)Preamp??? There may be better, BUT for the $3350.00 I paid for the pair it sounds like a MILLION coming out of my Magnepan 1.6's. SO NO MO AMPS & PRES FO ME.
I have the Harman Kardon Citation XX and the X-II Preamp. I'm the 2nd owner. It was a gift From Sidney Harmon to The North American Sales Manager from whom I acquired them from. I thought it was hype but after hooking them up I realized this was a keeper. I cannot find any material on it anywhere as to how many were made and in fact had never seen one till the day I fell into it.
