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...

Coda for me. I have 2 15s stereo amps converted to monoblocks linked to the 05X preamp and the 06x phono preamp and I'm looking no further. Nirvana.

Great thing about Coda is that you can talk to the owners and they are so accommodating. They set up my phono amp specially to match the loading of my cartridge. They also converted the 15s for me at the factory so when they arrived it was minimum setup. They make and design all their equipment in the factory in Sacramento Ca.

They are the best.
Got an Emotiva XPA-2. Upgraded the power coed to the Cullen crossover cord.........OMG!!! Sound stage expanded all over the place. Instruments became more focused, and the air.....For right now I don't see how I could do better.
i,m hoping my ordered odyssey cyclops/khartgo becomes one.....thrishman, i found going to a morrow audio map3 power cord on my xpa-2 had similar results....i.ll read up on that cullen because i have never heard of it,
The legendary Krell FPB 700CX!,midrange to die for,plenty of power,finese,bass that is defined and deep,a huge well focused soundstage with plenty of three dimensionality and depth,with good quality cables like the Taralabs zero gold,omega gold,cabolt, all the best current offerings of Tara,this amp sounds better than what most people have ever heard this amp with these cables,quite supriseing to say the least!,A toast to all,cheers!
