Dan D'Agostino Progression Mono Amplifier (Single Amp Only) - As Traded
Condition: Excellent
Includes: Box, Power Cord and original packing
SN: PM0168P
Includes 3 month (90 day) warranty
Overview
The Dan D’Agostino Progression mono amplifier is one of the largest and most powerful Dan D’Agostino Master Audio Systems has made, delivering 500 watts into 8 ohms, doubling to 1,000 watts into 4 ohms and doubling again to 2,000 watts into 2 ohms. It employs a fully complementary driver stage, beefed up with 48 output transistors, a 3,000 VA power supply transformer and 400,000 microfarads of power supply storage capacitance.
The iconic look of the Momentum amplifiers’ power meters, inspired by the elegant faces of classic Swiss watches, continues with the Progression series. The Progression mono amplifier features a new meter design with a 180-degree needle swing, driven by a high-speed ballistic circuit that enhances the meter’s responsiveness. The longer swing allows the needle to cover the amplifier’s entire output range.
The venturi heatsink design premiered in the Momentum amplifiers has been adapted to the cooling needs of the Dan D’Agostino Progression mono amplifier by increasing the diameter opening of each cooling tube opening. Each heatsink is milled from a single, (22-kilogram aluminum billet.

Generating expert take…
Dan D’Agostino Master Audio Systems is a U.S. high-end audio brand founded in 2011 and based in Cave Creek, Arizona. It was created by Dan D’Agostino, one of the most influential names in modern American amplification and the longtime founder of Krell. The brand grew out of his decades of work in high-performance audio, with a clear emphasis on combining serious engineering, distinctive industrial design, and a deeply music-first philosophy.
The company is best known for amplification: flagship integrated amplifiers, power amplifiers, and preamplifiers are its core products, alongside phono stages and DACs in some lines. Its components are built for serious two-channel systems rather than broad consumer audio, and the lineup is organized around a few highly refined families rather than a wide mass-market catalog. Dan D’Agostino does not focus on speakers, turntables, headphones, or cables as its main identity.
In the market, Dan D’Agostino sits firmly in the ultra-high-end, boutique category. It is a statement brand associated with audiophile reference systems, luxury cabinetry, and very high performance expectations. Buyers tend to see it as a prestige manufacturer with strong engineering credibility and a distinctive visual signature, aimed at enthusiasts who want no-compromise amplification at the top end of the market.
