Pass labs krell parasound amps

@richardbrand I bet they are good! And i also bet some people find them beautiful. 

@richardbrand I'll bet it's more than 80 watts into 8ohm, most manufacturers that claim this doubling underrate the 8ohm measurement, still the krell ksa amps are as close as you can get to a perfect voltage source.

The KRELL DUO amps are ugly as sin, but I would love to have one again since they sound so good.

@invalid Yep.  They were ranked as one of the ten most influential amplifier designs of all time.  I don't really compare mine to anything else - I am just deliriously happy.with it.  I also use it to drive KEF Reference 1 speakers.

My Krell replaced a Quad 100-Watt 405-2 which uses a very clever design where a small class A amplifier "tops up" a beefier amplifier.  This idea was later used by Devaliet.  Peter Walker of Quad defined a perfect amplifier as "a straight wire with gain".

Parasound JC 5 is the best bet for you imo 

I don't think enough people have heard it so the comments here are not in line with its value ... and it's definitely not an A21, far superior
