Personal amp evolution

Seeing the over night success of the speaker evolution thread, it may be interesting to see what type of amp(s) we have all run. Same deal as the other thread-we will sort of create a puzzle of our systems you'll have to visit multiple threads to put everything together!!! ;)
For me I started:
Adcom GFA-565 monoblocks
Rotel RB-990bx
Jeff Rowland Design Group Model 5
Balanced Audio Technology(BAT) VK-60

either a CAT JL2, BAT VK-75se or Tenor 75Wp on the horizon.

Mine is pretty short, and at this point I can't see it getting any longer anytime soon...

Sony Pro-Logic Receiver (don't remember the model)
Music Reference RM-9
Lamm M2.1

The Lamms may very well be here for life. I can't find a flaw in them, and the only things that still intrigue me are a few megabuck SETs.

I've recently found well designed integrated amps that outperform top level separates...i.e...Krell 400xi is an amazingly dynamic, transparent and extended unit with tonal color on par with the best available. With the right cabling it is a giant killer!!
