Does anyone here know if the Trio would be a step up from my HCA-2. I'm currently using the HCA-2 with an Eastern Electric Mini Max pre to drive Apogee Stages and am really happy with the sound and was wondering if the switch would be worth it? Thanks in advance for any advice.

They are different. The HCA-2 is a bit warmer and more lush sounding while suffering from a bit of cloudiness, while the Trio is more open and clean still maintaining a warm sound.
Paul, I'm assuming that PA Audio fixed the distortion at 10khz and up that was present in the HC-A2? My biggest concern with the A-100 is it's ability to energize a pair of hard to drive 6" Kevlar woofers? (89db-6ohm-30 to 300w power rating)

Sorry for my late reply. Yes, we fixed the distortion and I see no reason why an A-100 wouldn't drive the speakers and, sound great to boot!
