Personal amp evolution

Seeing the over night success of the speaker evolution thread, it may be interesting to see what type of amp(s) we have all run. Same deal as the other thread-we will sort of create a puzzle of our systems you'll have to visit multiple threads to put everything together!!! ;)
For me I started:
Adcom GFA-565 monoblocks
Rotel RB-990bx
Jeff Rowland Design Group Model 5
Balanced Audio Technology(BAT) VK-60

either a CAT JL2, BAT VK-75se or Tenor 75Wp on the horizon.

Lafayette Receiver (1967-1970)
Scott integrated (1970-1976)
Pioneer sx-838 (1976-1985)
Yamaha R-9 (1985-1986)This is the point that I just wasn't satisfied. What a 2 dimensional sound this receiver had. The worst piece of the bunch.
Threshold S-200 (1986-1988)
Dynaco ST70 (1988-1990)
McIntosh MC-60's (1990-1997) still own

Oh I forgot this one and Tireguy, you are too young to remember so don't laugh, Mom and Dad's Zenith Console "The quality goes in before the name goes on" bought from our next door neighbor who was a distribution salesman for Zenith.

It was a good, more than good it was wonderful, to me. My sister still has the solid maple cabinet that housed this sonic wonder of its day. Purchased in 1960.
