Adcom gfp 750....why so many for sale?

They are made by Chinese Elves!
They have evil spirits lurking inside, with bad vibes constantly emanating from them.
They are constantly breaking down.
They make other audiophiles smurk when they see it in your system.
They sound like chopped horsemanure.
They smell.
They look stupid.
They never work properly.
They are made by Chinese Elves with bad breath and who are flatulent.
That is why I use one.

Viridian: ...Or not. I'm proud to say none of my my gear is recommended. I even have several issues unread. I used to read it cover to cover and now it just gets in the way of the music. Advertisers will always hold sway over the readers despite what JA would have you believe. Richard Hardesty has some good thoughts on this.

Sorry to hijack the thread. The Adcom is still viable and will do fine for many of us. The pitfalls of passive operation are largely myths, ime. Setup is everything. Happy Ash Wednesday!

Tripper, shouldn't it be, "Sorry to hijack the thread twice."?

The adcom gfp 750 is a great preamp with no sound flavor. Many audiophiles prefer some smooth or warm bloom sound characteristic.

The question is even when we have wonderful sounding gear, do we have to continue to sell it off and search for the Holy Grail? Nothing wrong with the Adcom, ALOT of them were sold and alot of people searching for the Holy Grail.
Everything becomes available sooner or later.
