Rockford did some good numbers I know, so did Orion as well as others but I dont think they were great on the sound q side. I mean they were great but not alot of people were using them for sound q. I seen mostly Mcintosh, Nakamichi and pioneer had some Class a amps.

Those Old School Class A/B amps from Rockford & Orion HCCA's in the 80's were well known for SQ & still are.

i have hundreds of zines from the 80's to today it's cool and sad to look at all the brands that have come and gone perhaps we should start a post just on old companies from then to now?
