The Parasound AMP LOVE FEST Thread!! (1 Viewer)

[John H]

I currently use a HCA-2205A and a HCA-1500A in my system. In the past I have used three HCA-1000A's another HCA-1500A, and a HCA-2003. I have always loved their performance.

Yet another vote for the HCA-855a. Can't wait until I have room and can afford another one!

Parasound HCA-1206 THX here. One of the first multichannels if I recall correctly.

It's an ok amp I reckon

Wow Steve, that's an awesome setup!!
Are you bi-amping speakers?
Didn't realize there were so many Parasound owners on this forum. Parasound Love Fest Club rocks!!!

 

[Justin Lane]

Another new satisifed HCA-855A owner here (thanks Ubid). Thinking about getting a second one, but can't make up my mind yet.
I also own a Parasound ZAMP that I am using for my EX/ES speakers. It is one powerful little amp.

I love my HCA-1500A but most of all I love my HCA-1203A because hardly anyone has one.

 

[Paul Clarke]

I swore I wasn't going to contribute to this madness...soooooo :b
I love my 855A...but not as much as I love my wife.
She bought it for my 50th 8 months in advance...and I get to use it now...Sweet.

I absolutely love my three Parasound amps.
(1) Parasound HCA 2003A 220 x 3
(2) Parasound HCA 1000A 125 x 2
I can't wait for my new Rotel 1066 to come in.

Jerry,
Please let us know how the Rotel 1066 matches up with your Parasound amps, as well as what speakers you have. I'm interested.

 

[JerryIII]

DanaA,
I will be sure to post a write up after I have had time to evaluate the 1066. I run all NHT speakers and SVS subs.

[Vlad D]

Just want to reaffirm my love for my 855A.
Actually, I was curious about how Jerry's Rotel 1066 matched up with his Parasounds?

 

[RandyRush]

Just got my HCA2003A and I can say I really like it; using it to power my front 3;seems they do make a good product!

 

[Holadem]

Which 2ch amp from them would make a difference compared to my Denon 4802 with my (probably) future Paradigm Studio 100?

The 4802 has 125W/Ch - and it really means it, its a $2500 receiver from Denon.

Holadem,

The Parasound HCA-1000A is 125 wpc and the Parasound HCA-1500A is rated at 205 wpc. Both are 2 channel amplifiers.

 

[Dave K]

I love my Parasounds (and Paradigms) too!
2 HCA-2003s (3x220) and a HCA-2205AT (5x220)

Love my Proceed but have a soft corner for Parasound.

 

[Bob-N]

Just curious. How much did you Parasound amp guys pay for your 1205 and 855A's? I see that in CA, they are mainly sold by the Good Guys (ugggh) so I won't be seeing much discount there.

One of my channels on my current amp is on the way out. Parasound looks to be a good value and am doing a bit of research on them right now.

I see that there are a few on audiogon.com and ebay. None on Ubid at the moment.

You can email me or PM if you don't want to post that info here.

Thanks, Bob

Glad to see this thread back up....I know that my 855A is running strong powering a whole set of Rockets 750 all around and the Big Center!

They are amazing with this set!
