What you describe is why I currently do not own a solid state amp and (I'm guessing) part of the reason there are so few women in high end audio. The glare can be brutal but most don't hear it unless their high frequency hearing is still intact.

...nah I hear it in the upper midrange where your ears are more sensitive.
That's probably because my HF hearing rolls off around 12k.
Even the A21 or the older HCA models?
I wonder if that's also why I never liked the Neumann KM84 and AKG C-451E microphones. They both have an edgey "brittle" sound (especially the KM84). (As condenser mics, they have an amplifier built into them.)

"Even the A21 or the older HCA models?"
I never heard the older models. But I did review the JC-1. The JC-1 had bigger issues than just a brittle edge. And yes, I did discuss them with John Curl. In fairness, the amp I reviewed was an early version and I'm sure any issues have now been corrected.
My comments were not targeted at Parasound, but solid state in general based on my experience over the years.
