Parasound HCA-2003 (needs repair)

kuntasensei

Parasound HCA-2003 3-channel amp. Bought from a fellow Polkie but it is having issues with one channel working sporadically. Parasound has told me that they believe it to be the output relays, which is supposedly a simple fix if you know what you're doing... but I don't and no shop around here does the work. I would like to get $200 + shipping (which should be around $60 to just about anywhere CONUS), Paypal preferred.

This is being sold AS-IS, and I can provide pictures if anyone would like (though I'd rate it 9/10 cosmetically - looks very nice). I won't make back what I paid for it, but hopefully someone who knows what they're doing can get this back in action and give it a good home.

Weekend bump. Someone make me an offer on this thing so I can get it in the hands of someone who can fix it up and enjoy it.

I can attest, this is a clean amp, I'm the one that sold it to him and he was very honest to work with.

So am I correct to assume that two channels are working? If so, a two channel 220 wpc parasound amp for 200 bones that's a deal!

GLWS!

Two channels seem to be working fine. The other channel works fine SOMETIMES - i.e. if you power it off and back on when it flakes out, the channel comes back on. That's why Parasound thinks it's just output relays. But if that's the case, they recommended doing all three channels since they tend to age about the same. I just don't have anyone who can do the work here, so I'm hoping someone with more technical know-how can get some enjoyment out of it.

I'll pop a couple of pics up in the morning. Someone had asked me for them last night, but I spaced on it today. :redface:

Just figured I'd bump this up to see if anyone's interested. I've had so much going on lately that I never even put pics up. Let me know if there's any interest.

I bought a GFA-5503 from kuntasensei and it was a very smooth transaction. Great seller here.
