Amps which are Great, but either Unknown or Underpriced


Hello everyone,


When I think of Power Amps (or integrated amps) that play / sound way beyond their price-point and can be non-household names, I think of companies like:


  1. Belles (Power Modules)
  2. McCormack
  3. Coda


Can you guys please suggest other Power Amps / Companies that are also somewhat unknown or of great value?


Your suggestions would really help me and others.  Thanks!

I'll just say that I owned a Yamaha A-S3000 for a couple years and my new Rogue Cronus Magnum II is more enjoyable in just about every regard--missing the glowing meters. I don't know if Rogue audio is unknown but the value for money and amazing sound I'm hearing helped me get off the amplifier merry-go-round. If you've heard the previous Cronus Magnum, you need to hear the Cronus Magnum II, it's not even close and the Cronus Magnum was a lauded product. 
Keeping in the context of the original question, I also recommend  Clayton Audio. Class A with a very "organic" sound.

Jeff Korneff amps and Derek Sanderson's Fleawatt chip amps - you might just sell your 300b SET for one of Derek's offerings and not miss it at all.....

Other than that, I've always liked the older B&K amps as giantkillers like the above 2 names....

Aavik Acoustics U300. A little pricey but with a built in excellent Dac and phono stage to boot for an integrated.
