Adcom GFP-565 preamp

[erniejade]

Adcom GFP565 Pre-amp. The pre is in great condition and has a fantastic sound to it. You will have to spend a lot more $ to get a better sounding preamp. If it sounds so good then why and I selling it? I went with tubes. I have ran this preamp for years without any issues.


Features 3 sets of preamp outs! One of them is a bypass so it is a direct out that bypasses the bass and treble. Premium grade IC's, front panel processor loop for an EQ or any kind of processor you would like to add on, and a fantastic phono section.

The unit comes with the original box, manual, and a re-print from Stereophile review of the amp. What did stereophile say, Well Feb. 1990 this preamp was $798.00 and what Stereophile said " If an $800.00 preamp can be compared to a $5000 product, with the results being a toss up depending upon which source material you prefer, it speaks very well"


Condition the top does have some scratches. The face to me looks fine. NOT 100% but you have to look hard to find a flaw kind of thing.

I would like to get $250 for it.

Excuse my ignorance...you say that one of the outputs is a bypass. Does that mean it has HT Bypass, and can be used with an AVR? I have heard that is something I should look into, but have never seen one. Thanks, and good luck with the sale.

Where are you located ?

[erniejade]

Hi by bypass outputs, it bypasses all tone controls including the loudness button If you turn them or hit the loudness it will not do anything. I don't understand what HT bypass is. Sorry about that.

leroyjr1 You know I always thought I had it under my name but I see now ( after what 1 year on this board) that I don't!! Sorry about that. I have posted it up on there.

I am in the SW burbs of Chicago Bolingbrook.

Honestly, I would still be using this if it was not for changing to tubes. It is a outstanding preamp.
