We construct an amplifier that interpolates between a nondeterministic, immaculate linear amplifier and a deterministic, ideal linear amplifier and beyond to nonideal linear amplifiers. The construction involves cascading an immaculate linear amplifier that has amplitude gain g(1) with a (possibly) nonideal linear amplifier that has gain g(2). With respect to normally ordered moments, the device has output noise mu(2)(G(2) - 1) where G = g(1)g(2) is the overall amplitude gain and mu(2) is a noise parameter. When mu(2) >= 1, our devices realize ideal (mu(2) = 1) and nonideal (mu(2) > 1) linear amplifiers. When 0
