Amplifier history

[pete693]

Over the years I've had the following amplifiers.

Mullard 3/3 with 2 valve pre-amp
Mullard 5/10 (home built)
Mullard 20 watt (home built)
Western Electric 50 watt
Toby Dinsdale 10 watt (home built)
Marantz 4240 ( quad amp)
Quad 405/44
Quad 11 Jubilee /66
Marantz PM8003
Marantz PM17
Quad 306

But I can say without any doubt that my current amp,Marantz PM14S1, is the best I have ever owned and in my opinion the best I have ever heard (pulls head in).

Just wanted you to know.

I'm pleased that you're happy!

I'm not the greatest ever Hi-Fi officionado but I love music and good sound.

I've always been happy with my NAD amps. It may be a case of 'you don't miss what you've never had'. I don't dare to listen to something that may be better because I'd then impoverish myself to buy it.

Happy listening...just don't bring a better amp round to my house unless you want me to steal it!

Loads tbh!!!
Too many too mention but last one was a Leema Tucana.
Now have an Amp Labs Quad 303 which wasn't much of a downgrade to be fair.

Go on then:
Arcam alpha 2
Audiolab 8000a
One I can't remember name
World audio kel84
Manley stingray (lovely)
Leema Tucana
Tisbury pre and quad 303
I'm sure there's more, bad memory
