The old Phase Linear equipment was good for its time, but much like
the old Dynacos, they have been seriously outclassed by modern
designs.

A year or two ago I decided to upgrade my equipment.  At first I
thought I'd go out and buy some of the better old equipment that I
lusted after years before.  But when I actually found some and
listened, they were incredibly and amazingly bad!  Even the lowest end
of the high end sounded much, much better.

With a low budget, I ended up being adequately satisfied with an Adcom
GFA-535.  The difference between it and the old stock Dynacos (tube
models included) was unbelievable.  Listen for yourself and see!
