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.

Amazon has the Adcom GFA-6006 70-Watt 6-Channel 3-Zone Multi-Room Amplifier
for $770.99 with free shipping and handling. That’s a good price for this amplifier – designed primarily for custom installed where you want to set up speakers in multiple rooms. There’s more information on this amp on the Adcom website.

OneCall (via Amazon) has the Adcom GFA-555SE 2-Channel 200-Watt Amplifier
for $793.33 with free shipping and handling. That’s more than $500 below MSRP of $1,299. This is essentially a re-release/upgrade of 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.

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.

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).
