New Adcom power amps?

..
I hope they come out with a monoblock in that chassis.
Yikes!

As a teenager, I remembered not been impressed by the sound quality of their big guns but the 535?? was a little gem. Back then, offering from B&K, Hafler, NAD, were sonically superior IMHO. Now reading at the description and parts used in these new interations seem likes we may have a winner. An option to please the Magnepan crowd perhaps?

I owned Adcom in the early 90's.  Tweeter hi fi used to really push that brand.  I had the 555 amp and their best preamp, their tuner and cd player connected to Vandersteen 2ci speakers.  I thought it was great until I heard the same speakers with better electronics.  They certainly didn't sound like mine.  I quickly dumped all the Adcom and never looked back.

Well I guess the sale price was too good, I just ordered a GFA 555SE.  Reg price was 1299 for 200wpc and it looks like 70 amps per channel max, yikes!  The sale price on the Adcom.com site is almost 300 off.  Hey Wolf, I think I saw one with your name on it.  

I sold off a halo A21 almost a year ago and have been dabbling in NAD. We’ll see what the Adcom can do.

And >900 damping factor! Keep us posted. I'll be interested in your findings.  My New Year's resolution is getting a pair of relative power-hungry loudspeakers
Enjoy!
