Accuphase Vs Parasound


Hi guys! I’m considering purchasing a used E-560 for USD 4000 to drive my Elac Adante AS-61 (85dB) . Im quite new to this hobby, so I’m hoping to be able to get some advice from more experienced listeners here on this. Do share your thoughts. Thank you 🙏

Just some background, before I saw the E-560 on the used market, I was planning to go for Parasound Hint 6 or Parasound P6 pre and perhaps A21 / A21+ (that’s apparently coming out in a couple of months). Right now I’m just using a Yamaha Aventage rx-a1060 AVR so it’s not ideal for music listening.

Accuphase is a whole different level of audio equipment.  They are built to last forever and use the best parts inside.  Parasound is good for the money but in no way is it in Accuphase league. 
Counterpoint being the Parasound is a much more modern amplifier and its possibly also class A/B. They'll sound very different. 

I have to say, that Accuphase equipment is artwork also.

Not only do they last and sound great, they also look wonderful.  Very classy look.
