Amps which are Great, but either Unknown or Underpriced

Hello everyone,


When I think of Power Amps (or integrated amps) that play / sound way beyond their price-point and can be non-household names, I think of companies like:


  1. Belles (Power Modules)
  2. McCormack
  3. Coda


Can you guys please suggest other Power Amps / Companies that are also somewhat unknown or of great value?


Your suggestions would really help me and others.  Thanks!


Matt

Clayton Audio for Class A solid state
SPEC for Class D, if you can get away with a little less power
Send your McCormack to SMc audio for signature upgrades

Find an old Hafler D-220, or one of the pro versions of the 220, clean it up and install John Hillig's mods from Musical Design. Sounds great, will probably outlive you, and is fun to do.

@adeep42  ,
do you understand the title of this thread? You must have millions to throw to consider Ayre underpriced!

Exposure - not well known in the US, and excellent sounding.
