 J&R Music World has the highly regarded Adcom GFA-5500 Stereo Power Amplifier for a low $849 with free shipping and handling. Although $236 higher than a deal at Kmart back in March (which sold out fairly quickly), that’s still the lowest price I’ve seen at J&R and a few hundred dollars less than anywhere else. It normally sells for $1,499. This model is similar in specifications and operation to Adcom’s prior model GFA-555, which was the subject of this 1985 review by Stereophile (stereo technology hasn’t changed that much in the past 24 years). It puts out 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 350 watts per channel into 4 ohms. It can handle pretty much any speaker you throw at it. AudioAdvisor still has a number of Parasound amplifiers and preamplifiers in its “factory refreshed” clearance section at savings of 15 to 25 percent off of MSRP. All come with 5 year warranties. Among the items available: Adcom GFA-6006 70-Watt 6-Channel 3-Zone Multi-Room Amplifier for $770.99 with free S&H at Amazon.com Amazon has the Adcom GFA-6006 70-Watt 6-Channel 3-Zone Multi-Room Amplifier  OneCall (via Amazon) has the Adcom GFA-555SE 2-Channel 200-Watt Amplifier  OneCall has the Adcom GFA6002 Factory Renewed Single Zone 70 Watts x2 Amplifier for $399 with free shipping and handling. That $165 lower than the best price available for a new, sealed-box unit. This power amp is intended for use in a second zone, but could also be used as a primary amp. Although I couldn’t find any expert reviews of this model, Adcom amps are generally regarded as having good build and sound quality.  Spearit Sound (via Amazon) has the NAD – C-275BEE – Stereo Power Amplifier (refurbished)  J&R Music World has the Adcom GFA-5400 2-Channel Stereo Power Amplifier for an extremely low price of $499 with free shipping and handling. I couldn’t find it anywhere else for less than close to $650, and most reputable retailers charge $799. This amp puts out 125 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 200 watts per channel into 4 ohms. I couldn’t find a review of this specific model, but a number of adcom models have been reviewed over the years by Stereophile (search for Adcom).  AudioAdvisor.com (via Amazon marketplace) has the Parasound – 2125 125-Watt THX Ultra2 Two-Channel Amplifier |
