Was cleaning out files, not sure if anyone is interested. I have three Adcom brochures; GFP-555 pre amp, a reprint of the GFP-555 Stereophile review and the Adcom Crosscoil phono cartridge. All but the review are in color and they are in real nice condition.

If more than one person wants them, I'll have a drawing on Saturday the 9th. Open to all, just say your in and if you have any Adcom gear. You don't have to own any Adcom gear to enter/win.

    My very first "IN" of any karma on Club Polk. I love original brochures and stuff like this.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Not much interest, and I won't be around this weekend so the karma is ended and Mark gets the brochures.

    Nice job Mark!

    If I had a GFP, I would've got them to frame... but I'm still rockin' the Hafler pre.
    Ludicrous gibs!

    I had these as well since they came with my GFA 545 when I bought it new in '86. Kept them all these years and they went to Curt, the new owner of my 545. Cool pieces of history.

    Hello,

    My first time on this forum!
    My favorite moving coil cartridges are those made by ADCOM in the 80's, and I have been trying to get a copy of the Cross-Coil brochure for several years. I see this one went to 'mark' - is it possible to get a copy of this manual, or the manual itself if no longer of interest?

    Thanks, Jeff

    Yep, I've got all of these brochures as well. Some cool reading in there. I'll include them with the 545 if I ever decide to sell it, but I don't think that'll be happening for quite a few years yet.:)
