RE: Parasound A21 vs A23?

The Stereophile test I read had ONE of the pair of mono blocs fail during the pre-conditioning period. It would not restart even though the fuses were good. OOOPS!

The other met or exceeded most specs except for bandwidth. Square wave was near-perfect.
Other measured performance was pretty darn good, including 2ohm power of OVER 1kw. I'd personally have a separate 20 amp circuit for EACH amp.

Not for me, though. I'm quite happy with the Parasound I have hooked to my panels. If I had THAT kind of $$$ for amps? I'd go with either a pair of JC-1 or look to Pass for some 'a' monos.

Too much is never enough
