Levinson, Pass labs or Parasound?


Driving a pair of Soundlab A-1's which would be a better bet. All three amps below are approximately the same cost on the used market. The parasound mono's have had exceptional reviews when specifically mated with the A-1's but have no real way of demoing them. Anyone have experience with any of the following amps?

Parasound JC-1's

Pass Labs X-350

Mark Levinson NO:335

Thanks for your input

Thanks for all the responses. I have heard good things about the nuforce line. I am in the states and might have to set aside some time with them. I was afraid the Levinsons @ 250/channel might not be up to the task but they are a quality piece so I thought i would ask. Any other amp suggestions would be appreciated used in the 3 to 4K ball park.
If you are looking for an amplifier that has enough power and will perform exceptionally well with the Soundlab's for around $4,500 used, then you owe it to yourself to audition a pair of Bryston 7B-SST monoblock amplifiers. I used to own Pass Labs X-600 monos, which cost over twice as much, and the Bryston amps were a definite improvement in my system. Plus, they come with a 20 year warranty which doesn't hurt down the road if you want to trade up again.
if you're considering Pass Labs amplifier, then you're probably better off if you get the latest .5 amps.
X350.5 or even X250.5. Although I never compared how the older series amps sound vs the newer x.5 series, word is the newer ones are more natural sounding. I own X250.5 and it is a great amplifier. Drives my B&Ws no problems.
In the under $4k range, used, also consider McCormack DNA-500.
Hi Brimac. Jason at NuForce does not recommend plugging their amps into power conditioners. I'm delighted to hear that the PS Audio 300 power plant is compatible with them. What else is plugged into the PS Audio PP?
Hi Yoby,
I was talking to Jason last week, and he recommended the Black Noise Mains Filters from Italy. I've asked him to send one so I'll report on that experience when it's in system. Perhaps it's my electricity, but the Power Plant really raised the already excellent performance of the Nuforce amps to an even higher performance level. The soundstage just exploded in width and depth, and imaging became pinpoint. Impressive!
I also have an Audio Aero Cap mk 11 CDP plugged into the Power Plant.
