Phoenix Gold M25
This amplifier has a long history, and ended up becoming my "reference" amplifier. It is the best sounding amp I have ever heard, and is also one of the most underrated. Rated for 25W x 2, this amp will do 100W x 2 into 4 ohm loads, with its 20V unclipped output capability. When I received it, the input supply capacitors were leaking, and the rail capacitors were a bit bulged out on the top. Cosmetically, it needed work. Every piece was rusted somewhere, and many were missing large areas of paint. Well, thanks to some very helpful PG employees, this amp now has new life, and is nearly as nice as the day it was made. It will probably continue to be my reference amplifier for as long as cars remain 12V systems.
