adcom GTP tuner/preamp

[neal98]

Looking to get a Adcom tuner/preamp (the gtp) line, but wanted some opionions.
I understand some of them don't have a built in phono amp, does anybody know what models DO have that?

I have a GTP-400 that I bought new some 16 years ago that continues to serve me well. It's one of those audio products that IMO performs WAY above its pricepoint. It may not have a lot of bells and whistles, but it jusg gets out of the way, adds little coloration of its own, and just makes music. And yes, it has a very good MM phono section.

Other Adcom GTP's with a phono section:
GTP-500
GTP-500 II
GTP-602

I have a GTP-500II and have been very happy with it. It does indeed have a phono section.

I used to own the GTP-400 and it was a fine preamplifier. The tuner, although not the best in class, is suitable for daily listening.

As a reference point, I have a GTP-600 and it does NOT have a phono preamp. Good pre, though.

I have an early GTP-500 that I love. Sounds great and has the phono section.
