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.

35. Denon DRA-700 receiver
36. Antique Sound Lab MG-si15DT

Surprisingly good sounding receiver & very nice Single Ended Triode / Pentode integrated amp :)

I'm now using a Sandersound Magtech. It is fantastic with my Soundlab U-1s. I would suggest it as an alternative to the Parasound monos or even the most expensive tube amps. I found Sanders easy to work with and over 2 years the amps haven't hiccuped once.

I had it with the Wolcotts since I moved to an 1818 house and I don't believe there was enough juice in the living room to drive them....Hope the new owner is happy.
