Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ?


Just wondering, with this audio merry-go-round of buying and selling, if anyone has an amp that will be a keeper for life. I haven't yet but came verrrry close once...

While I may never sell my 300B mono blocks; they will not drive many loudspeakers effectively. Eight watts is eight watts, period and loudspeakers mated with them need to be north of 95 db/watt/meter to avoid obvious clipping.
That said; the 300Bs mated with my Tannoys are an excellent pairing and I could live with them till I die. Still, more power is a luxury I am fortunate to afford and 60 watts Class A/120 watts Class AB is even sweeter as I rarely bump my head with these and not a transistor in sight.

Perhaps an amplifier/loudspeaker pairing would have been a more meaningful topic.
