How Many Amplifiers do you have?

Just two. In the office/main listening room, a Crown XLS 1000 (paired with an ARC SP9II). In the living room "theater" a Sansui AUX 619R. Would love to try one of these new little tube amps, though.
 
I may have responded before but here is an update.

Sansui AU-717, AU-919, AU-D11 II, AU-X701, C-2102/B-2102, AU-X1, Technics SU-A900 Mk II = 7

Listening to the AU-919 now :music:
 
Enough. Maybe even to many. Yamaha,Carver,Soundcraftsmen,DIY,Hafler.........................
 
Probably too many... Adcom, Yamaha, Hafler, Luxman, and more Yamaha. Some hidden in strange places to keep a happy life.

I have six. Two "real" solid state: kit-built Hafler DH-200 still going strong after 35 years, Forte Model 55. Two tube: kit-built Latino VTA ST-120, Silk (Yaqin) MC-30L. Two chip amps: a Lepy LP-2020A, and my newest toy, a cute little naked TP3116 that was $9.78, doing duty out in the garage! On a per dollar basis, the TP3116 is the best of the bunch. It actually is almost a "real" amplifier!
 
Ho boy, too many. Excluding anything with a tuner:

Pioneer SA-9500 mkII, stock
Onkyo 7055, stock
Rotel RB-970BX, stock
Yamaha CA-810, on the bench now for repairs and modifications
Sherwood HP-1000, totally new "Wolverine" power amp section, some mods to preamp
Dynaco ST-120, someone else's unfinished project

All work perfectly, except the Dyna-saur which is extinct pending a full re-evolution.
 
Power Amps:
Adcom GFA-535
Crown XLS-1000
And a handful of chip amps, mostly TPA3116s

Integrated Amps:
Dynaco SCA-35
NAD 3020
Yamaha AV-55
 
Two.
Both are the same, Technics su-v85a. I love these amps that run the Wheatstone bridge coupling between the class A voltage stage and the current compensating output stage.

I hope to pick up the TOTL su-v90d someday.
 
Integrated Amplifiers:
Pioneer SA-710
Pioneer SA-520

Power Amplifiers:
Denon POA-1500 (quantity 2) - these need some minor repair
Crown XLS-1500 (quantity 2)
Crown XLS-2000
Emotiva UPA-2
Emotiva XPA-2, Gen2
 
I have a few

Phase Linear 400 series 1 to be WOPL500'd at some point
Phase Linear 400 series 1 (Aerosmith's owned which powered Steven Tyler's stage monitors) Hanley Sound spec left stock
Phase Linear 700 series II Clair Brothers spec now being maxed to a WOPL1000 by Perry, should be done this week. This was a Dio era Black Sabbath tour amp (Heaven & Hell & Mob Rules)
Phase Linear 700B just waiting for it to be WOPL1000'd and delivered
Phase Linear 700 stock
Onkyo M-504
Kenwood M1
 
At last count I was at 48 power amplifiers (counting monoblocks as 1 piece). I'm definitely envious of you guys showing only < 10.
 
Crown XLS 2500

Crown XTI 4002

use to own more but, don't really need anymore. just need some for mains and subs, that's all.
 
Heathkit AA-14
Heathkit AA-151
Kenwood KA-7100
Kenwood KA-8100
Sansui AU-517
