Personal amp evolution


Seeing the over night success of the speaker evolution thread, it may be interesting to see what type of amp(s) we have all run. Same deal as the other thread-we will sort of create a puzzle of our systems you'll have to visit multiple threads to put everything together!!! ;)
For me I started:
Adcom GFA-565 monoblocks
Rotel RB-990bx
Jeff Rowland Design Group Model 5
Balanced Audio Technology(BAT) VK-60

either a CAT JL2, BAT VK-75se or Tenor 75Wp on the horizon.

Like many of the above posts, I started with midfi- Sansui 6 receiver. I evolved into hifi with the Hafler 220 and never looked back. I upgraded to a pair of OCM 100's(used as balanced differential monoblocks). It seems I have followed a trend in changing from solid state to tube amps--Berning 811 Ziegfried. Not to start another thread, but has anyone else noticed this trend? Just curious as to why or what made people change from SS to tubes.
Fisher 500T receiver - 1967
QUAD 303 - 1973
QUAD 405 - 1978
ATI AT1502 - 1998
EDGE M-6 - 1999
Llano S200 - 2000
Belles 350A - 2002

I may try biamping with the Llano and the Belles.
