A Grommes LJ-3 was my first amplifier bought from "The Golden Ear" on the Purdue campus in 1956. Built a 15" Karlson Enclosure and installed a 15" University 315 Triaxial. Turntable was a Garrard RC90. The sounds from the system were great and the little Grommes became a sister to a 2nd LJ-3 and 2nd Carlson Enclosure when Stereo vinyl was introduced in late1957. The Karlson/Ubiversity speakers lasted till 1980 and were replaced by a pair of 1978 Klipschorns. The Grommes units made the Khorns sing but didn't do much for a pair od Dynaco A25s. The Grommes amps were replaced by a pair of Eico HF60s.
Try one or two Grommes Amos on efficient speakers and you will enjoy the sound.
