Forte Model 55 Amp

To resurrect this thread a little. I own Forte 55 #055195 that I bought new in 1997 replacing a Hafler DH-200 I built in 1982. I must admit I didn't know a great deal about high-end equipment at the time but I recognized the Threshold/Pass connection. I have really enjoyed this amplifier. I use it to run some Polk SDA 2.3 speakers. It has been to the tech only once after it recently lost one of the bridge rectifiers; not bad for 17 years of service.

I loved that amp, but it had to go to make way for a tube amp...a clean and musical powerhouse of an amp, and a really appealing look.

I have a Forte Model 55 I may be willing to sell. Any interest?

I might be interested if you are still willing to sell . . .

Bringing this back from the dead AGAIN. I just received my Model 55 in an auction purchase. The serial number is #055604 and like most here, I have found little or nothing online for this model. I have also reached out to Jon for info and prices for servicing, thank goodness he's still around! The serial numbers posted previously suggest the the production numbers were higher UNLESS they didn't use consecutive numbering (for whatever reason). Anybody come across any info on the Fifty Five OR have any literature I can have a copy of???
