Hidden Gems in Pre-Owned Solid State Power Amplifiers?

The Proceed HPA series are fantastic, but be careful as they are getting quite old and may need to be recapped.

Parasound HCA series. John Curl design. Still sounds like magic. From early 90’s and can be had for a bargain.

I had an HCA 2200 II back in the mid 90s. When I brought in a McCormack DNA-1 it made the Parasound sound broken. I almost lost the sale of the Parasound when the new owner wanted to hear the DNA-1 in my room. The look on his face was priceless..........

@mitch2 — yeah I know.  That’s why it’s so damn expensive, but then your basically getting a whole new amp.  I’m thinking I might send mine to Steve for upgrades.  Can you let me know what you think when you get the amps back?  I know they’ll be awesome, but if you could describe the characteristics of the improvements after the upgrade it would be supremely helpful.  Thanks!

Sorry I sold my Jeff Rowland Concentra 2

@soix - no problem, I will let you know.
