I started with technics 4 chanel CD4 8300 I think then a sony intergrated, that was the first couple years. Then I had 3 Mcintosh mc2205s 2 bi amped my front speakers the other drove the rear channels my second try at making 4 channel work. Then I sold the macs and got a conrad johnson p1 with el34s then modded it and ran 6550s then had it rebuilt and ran it with KT88s. Just retired that amp for ayre mono blocks. Preamps were Mac mc32 then Sonic Fronters proto type, now the Ayre top of line. I am adding a Ayre phono stage.
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.
