Amps which are Great, but either Unknown or Underpriced

Many good amps listed. I'll add Coincident Dynamo 34SE. Top notch and cost effective if you pair with high efficiency speakers.

Unknown can be a result of never having been given a review in the audio mags, or small production, or both.

I am a big fan of the Classe DR3 VHC, but they never had a review, they only made 166 of them (I own 3, one run stereo and two as bridged monos) and they were very expensive at the time ($5K c. 1987.

If you ever get the chance to hear them don't pass it up, and if you see them for sale (a very rare event) consider them. They will drive literally anything (including Apogee Scintillas on 1 ohm setting) and sound almost tube like.)

Downside is that they are very large (too high to fit in regular racks with fixed shelves) and quite heavy (c. 110 lbs each)

Krell Vanguard delivers music without compromise and can be had for $3600 at Audiophile Liquidaters!!  Equalls some $20K plus seperates I've owned.
