Is the Adcom GTP-750 any good?

Hello all, I am new to the site and looking for a little assistance. I have come across a new GTP-750 from a trusted source for $550. This is my first pre, and while I don't have a lot of cash sitting around, I do not want to buy something I will regret. If anyone has any experience with this unit or any knowledge I would appreciate the advice.
Thanks, Matt

Thank you all very much for you help. I went ahead and purchased the unit this morning. It was brand new sealed in its box, and I was assured that it was A stock. I appreciate the advice.

Thanks,
Matt

A lot of times B stock is just A stock with a shorter warranty period. Manufacturers' sometimes use Ubid to clear out overstocks and older models, which I guess the 750 is, now that there is a 760. Unless you get a transferable warranty, Ubid may be better.

The 760 isn't anything like the 750. They are totally different products. The 760 is a 5.1 channel tuner/preamp with digital signal processing for home theatre. The 750 is a basic audiophile quality 2-channel analog preamp. So the 760 does not replace the 750. Just a clarification. ...Abe

abecollins, you've got it wrong! The Adcom GTP-750 is NOT a 2 channel analog preamp. It is in fact a 5.1 channel Dolby Digital surround sound audio/video processor. Otherwise known as a pre/pro. Know what you're talking about before posting!

i think abe was talking about the gFp-750, not the gTp-750. the gfp is the two-channel preamp that goes for ~$1300 and was stereophile class A. the gtp is, as mentioned, their home theater pre/pro.
