Serviced Adcom GFA555

This is a really nice sounding Adcom amp. It was serviced this year by Audiowright in Ohio. They replaced a free caps and brought it all back to spec. It's not a mint unit, but not in bad shape either. A great deal for a serviced and perfectly working unit.

$300 plus shipping.

  • Mike @ Audiowright does good work.

    I've never been a big Adcom fan, I always thought they sounded harsh. But after the service on this amp, its not bad at all.

    Where are you located Trav? Maybe someone could pick this up and save some in shipping. If anyone new here who has a AVR with preouts and have been wanting to try running their main speakers with an outboard amp, this is a great starter amp on your journey. GLWTS!

    I'd be willing to do a flat rate of $25 for shipping (CONUS) if its paid via PayPal "friends and family".

    I was surprised it lasted on here as long as it did. It sold on eBay for $400+ shipping.

    Congrats on the sale Trav! Glad it worked out better for you.

    But in all fairness to the forum, two days (one being a major holiday) doesn't seem all that long, especially given the stagnant nature of the FM. I'm sure traffic on here was significantly lower than usual with the holiday. I think given another day or two and some Polkie would have gotten a killer deal on a nice amp here.
