Aragon 4004 mk2 vs Adcom 555 mk2

Didnt really mean that in a bad way CLbeanz. I think i understand what you are saying. The adcom gear is recognized to the extent that bose is. So you think that the adcom 5500 is a better amplifier to run head to head against an aragon 4004mkII? Must be a nice amp then cause my aragon is running my power hungry speakers beautifully.

Oh God no Kool39,only marketing perspective not product.
But you knew that in the end.
I just think the Aragon and Adcom are great performers
really this is a good time to be buying solid state,so many good choices and cheap watts.
I prefer the micro dynamics of the Adcom but the Aragon dances lead on woofers.
Noticed 8008's on sale was it Audio Advisor?

I own the Aragon and used to have an Adcom although I can't remember if it was that model or not. In any case, the Aragon was way more musical. The Adcom sounded "cheap" to me. However, the other components were upgraded at the same time (my house was burglarized) so it is not an apples to apples comparison.

"Way more musical" is a nice way of saying it has more harmonic distortion. Ok if that's what you like.

Aragon. Owner of a pair of modified Palladium 1K's. Ive been happy since day one. Adcom's best amplifer though the GFA5802 which I feel isnt too shabby of an amp for the price would be a good comparison again a 4004 I think. Both have a similiar used value too dont they?
