Adcom GFA-5400 Amplifier(125x2@8/200x2@4) - 9/10 - Black - *POOF!*

Here's another venerable Adcom amplifier ready for you to throw some speakers at it. It's almost perfect with a very small scratch and finish rub on the left side, front side, not faceplate. It has been checked out by my tech and all connections have been treated with CAIG products. It is a v1 GFA-5400 and 4 ohm stable. This is a current series, just an older model. Here's some specifics:

User Manual

Adcom comments:

The GFA 5400 replaces the GFA 545II and offers many of the same design features and sonic attributes of the enthusiastically received GFA 5802 and GFA 5500. The specifications should adequately describe all the pertinent information, including the increased power output into 8 and 4 ohms over the GFA 545II. As the 4 ohm power indicates, the current capability of the GFA 5400 has been substantially increased. The improvements are clearly audible with virtually all loudspeaker systems and will be appreciated by all who will use multiple 5400s in home theater systems.

Includes: Original box and hi-res copy of owners manual.


B&K Components 125.2 S1 Amplifier(125x2@8/185x2@4) - 9/10 - Silver - *SOLD* to DKG999

This amplifier has been used <20 hours and is practically new. I'm the original owner and if you have any issues during your ownership, within the 5 year warranty period, contact me and I'll take care of you.

The unit is flawless and all connections have been treated with CAIG products. It is 4 ohm stable and ready to power some good loudspeakers.

Here is a link to the 125.2 S2 which is identical physically and marginally different in only a couple spec's. The only physical change I see is a stacked transformer(2) instead of a single transformer, which makes sense in the values.

    Just checking....last call before Audiogon or eBay. I will include something cool from Polk in the deal, maybe a couple things of interest with the Adcom.

    DKG - The B&K ships out in the AM.
