I have the opportunity to pick up an Adcom GFA-7000 5 channel amp locally for 375.00. Locally meaning a few blocks from my house. Just wondering if anyone here has any experience with this amp, and if you would think it's a good idea to grab it.

    Ben is the local Adcom expert. I'm sure he could tell you. I have the 7500 and love it. I don't think you'd be sorry you picked it up. Seems like a pretty decent price too.

    I'd say $375 is a great deal for a 5 channel amp. Is it the one that's on Craigslist?

    That's a great price for that amp, I'd go for it. I've never gotten my ears on one before, but I've read nothing but positive reviews for it.

    I had the 7500 and loved it. The 7000 has a slightly less power. Still a power house that can handle difficult speakers with ease.

    I would try to knock him down on price though. Cash in hand speaks strong.
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben
