Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ?

Gaslover, Wanted you to know, that Grandson is an extremely musical little amp. It almost has a tubey (I know it's not a word) sound to it, but with extra heft in the lower end. Nice wide, deep sound stage. Been listening to it for nearly a week. Very sweet indeed.

I am surprised there isn't more on the web about these amps. Makes me wonder what AmpZilla sounded like?

Best,

Norman

Luxman M-4000. Sansui Definition Series. In the last couple of years, I have managed to obtain Luxman T-110, C-1000 & M-4000. Am shopping for the M-2000 and M-6000 to complete the collection. Also plan to keep my Sansui BA-5000, 3000, 2000 and TU-9900 forever. Am shopping for the CA-5000 to complete this collection.

The adcom gfa-555 is a solid built amp.

Sizemore - The Ampzillas varied a bit. The original was basically an updated Dynaco 400, both having been designed by James Bongiorno. I have the last version, the GAS 500 which was designed by Andrew Hefly. I would put this 30 year old beast up against any modern SS amp with complete confidence. Your Grandson is a keeper... NEVER part with it. And by all means drive it into a 1 Ohm load if possible. It will sing even sweeter. Bongiorno's word for it was "tubistor".
