Adcom?


I'm concerned about some of the talk I hear on this page and other pages about Adcom products. I know they are inexpensive but are they bad? I know when people talk about louddpeakers the name Bose always gets laughed at, and for good reason. I would never own a Bose product. However, it seems that Adcom is the "Bose" of electronics. I guess what I'm curious about is the fact that Adcom almost always gets rave reviews from the press. Such quotes as "you would have to spend 3 times the price to get this kind of sound elswhere" are common. So, the question is, Are Adcom amps and pre/pros decent products for use in a high end home theater system? or are they completely useless.

I had read that they had a quality problem a few years ago. Never one to believe what I read, I auditioned their amps. Their stuff looks cool, but I never found one I liked listening to. I eventually settled on Bryston (by the way top notch company, products, and support). Are you putting together a system, or looking to upgrade? If you are concerned about buying at the low end of hi-fi perhaps you can buy the more expensive pieces in stages.
