Proceed Amps

Russ:
If you're looking at buying one of the 2 channel amps I would recommend the HPA-2 over the smaller BPA-2. I had both and the HPA was a much better amp IMO. Not just more wattage but it really handles difficult speakers and sounded better from top to bottom. I was very happy using it with a tube preamp.

I recall some posters saying it didnt sound much different from the Levinson 431 that replaced it.

I replaced an HPA 3 with an ML 433, and the difference was there, but not huge, I still have an HPA covering my rears, great amps and for the money, one of the best buys in used audio IMHO.

Thanks again guys. I have a surround system so I am thinking an B(H)PA-3 in the front and an B(H)PA-2 for the rears.

Russ,

I ran an HPA 3 and HPA 2 for a while, you will be very happy!
