what are some of the best amplifiers

I have owned many amplifiers over time. Some were high priced and some were not. My latest finding is a pair of Forte model 7 monoblocks reworked by John Sodderberg. These are very magical amplifiers after 1/2 hour of warm up. The midrange is the best I've heard. Full bodied yet detailed. There is a mystical ring of air and depth that has to be heard to be believed. I have owned Threshold amplifiers(Fortes maker) and feel that the less expensive Fortes(4a and 7's), even in stock form, outperform the Thresholds. I think less is more!

Allchemie,

Perhaps you mean the McCormack DNA-500 (a sweet sounding, powerful brute and a bargain used). I had one, loved it.

Or maybe you mean the ModWright KWA-150? I replaced my DNA-500 with two of those. Even better.

Or better still, Steve McCormack and Dan Wright are working together and I don't know about it. Really great.
