Funny Adcom Anecdote:
Adcom in its early days was based in New Brunswick, NJ. Their first amplifier they offered was the GFA-1. It was shortly followed by their first preamp, fittingly named GFP-1.the Most companies had letter designations with a number, (Hafler DH-220, Denon DR75, Pioneer SX838). Some on the letters meant something, like DH standing for "David Hafler," others just sounded good. In Adcom's case, being they were based in New jersey, the letters had special meaning: "Great F'in' Amp," and "Great F'in' Preamp." Later, they introduced a sub-par tuner. The "GF" in that case stood for "Grossly Flawed," at least among the employees if not the marketing department.
