    I've been looking at 9090 but I would like to hang on for a G9000 to come up.

    Upscale Audio is blowing out two PrimaLuna power amplifier's. The 35-wattEL34 based Prologue Four at $899 and the 30-watt KT88 based Prologue Five at $$1,099.

    I bought the Five, I am really impressed with this amp. I have eight tube amplifiers, and this is top shelf all the way around. It is dead quiet.

    Check out this video by Kevin Deal from Upscale Audio.

    Likely close enough for most not to matter, and they were produced in far higher numbers. Attainable for many!

    I want a Yamaha B-1 and a B-2. Actually I want ALL the vintage VFET amp models ever made.

    Seeing as there weren't all that many VFET amps made to begin with. It shouldn't be all that difficult to accomplish.

    And if we are just randomly dreaming, also a C/M Labs 35D, as well.

    I'm worried people will read this post and assume I mean I'd simply like one example of each product McIntosh made. No - I want every single product they made. Forget that I don't have space for 500,000 amplifiers - that will work itself out.

    mostly sold out in my eyes as im watching and follow up the market and prices for some well known brands and models since around 5 years
    one good example for this trend is the Sansui AU-9500 not the AU-9900
    and surely more others anyway im tired now to count them all
    zzzzzZZZZzzzzz

    fmfxray373 Capitol LPs in the 70s were pretty good.

    I found this about 2 years ago for $15.00 in mint condition.
