Those three pieces are very, very good. If later he moves up to the mono JC1 amps, he will have a truly stellar hi-fi system base.
An all Parasound system - Good idea?
My brother- in- law visited last weekend and heard my 2 channel system for the first time. Slightly ocd, he spent much time online and emailed me last night to say he was going to put his own system together and was planning to buy all of his components from Parasound, in part because he thinks a single brand will optimze performance and compatability, and because he is enamored by the John Curl connection. To that end, he plans to buy a JC2 Preamp, A21 Amp and JC3+ phono amp.
I have told him focus on speakers first, then source components. That notwithstanding, is the "All Parasound " a good idea to avoid the possibility of components not playing nice together or should he not focus on brand loyalty and shop for "best in class" components instead?

The integrated, according to Parasound's website: http://www.parasound.com/hint.php is NOT designed by JC. They state "Power amp circuit topology designed by legendary John Curl." Meaning, they took what JC did for other amps and adapted it. Still a very nice Integrated! |
