I'm thinking of sending parasound HCA1500 for an upgrade. Was wondering if anyone has sent anything to them and opinions on work performed. Thanks

    I'm interested in the answers to this also. I just found them during a google search for "parasound" and am curious if they are as good as their website proclaims them to be.

    I've read some good reviews of their work, but have never used them. I can tell you that Adcom recomends them to service any of their non-warranty work.

    There was a member here Don was his name that sent his Parasound 3500 in and loved what they did.I think he was going to send in his Adcom GFP 750 as well.

    I've contacted Rick myself and he's a very nice guy to talk to and is willing to do whatever mod you want. Prices seem reasonable for work done and good quality for work. I plan on sending in a 2200 and a Adcom GFP 750 for him to go over and upgrade a little bit with some new caps etc.

    Only down side is he does have a 3 week time frame for turn around (or around there I think). So as long as you can wait a little bit I would say go for it.

    Thats a good sign to me. If he has a waiting list, can't be bad. Still would like to hear from someone who has actually delt with them.
