For Sale - Parasound HCA-750A - $175 Shipped and Paypaled

rooftop59

Title says it all. This is a great little amp, sounded really nice with some def tech sm350s I had running in the bedroom rig. I got some significantly less efficient speakers in there, so I upgraded to something with a little more juice. But make no bones about it, this is a great little warm sounding amp.

Its in very presentable condition, but not mint by any means. Functions great, comes with a generic power cord. The only thing to note functionally is that the volume pots needs a little deoxit. I used it with a receiver, so I just turn the volume all the way up and its no problem, but it may be something the future owner wants to address, then again maybe not.

One note about the pics - the feet are mismatched in the pics, but I replaced the two black feet with original parasound gol

d trimmed feet, so you are getting four matching feet.

This is already packed up in a really sturdy box with plenty of cushion. It will arrive to your door in the same condition it left me.

I will ship FedEx ground to your door. If you want to send paypal gift that would be appreciated, but if not I will cover the fees.

Thanks and let me know if you have any questions.

Since the pics split up the text, just to be clear, the amp works and sounds great, and it will come to you with four matching original gold parasound feet.

Very nice.
Hmm. I am debating between this or 275
for my CS350.
I will sleep on it lol.
If I don't buy it, good luck with sale.

Cheers!!

Yes you CAN run this in mono, although most people advise against it. Of course I want you to buy my amp, but I would do my research first on running it mono.

I'd run it in what they call "single ended stereo" instead... basically just one one channel of it and dont mess with a mono switch (if it has one).

I may look at doing that with the 1200ii I have for my Infinity RS-II's as some point as they say its better than making it a monoblock.

quicksilvergts

Hmm. Never heard of that. It is kinda difficult to find stuff about mono bridging for a center channel. Maybe I am not asking the right question while googling lol.

I just figured Since it would work until I find and have enough money to get the parasound 2205.

EndersShadow

Go for it, I had this amp for my RTA 11TL's and it made em sing with no problems.

rooftop59

Yes go for it! Basically the distortion gets higher as a monoblock. I would do what Dan is saying and just use one channel. That cs-350 isn't hard to drive and would come alive with this amp. I used a similar wattage but inferior amp in this way (just one channel) on my cs-400i and it sounded awesome! Really opened it up compared to just the receiver...

quicksilvergts

Lmao.
I just PM'ed you about this too
Too funny

Cheers!

My wife will kill me, but I just might take this to replace the other amp I bought from you. I'll let you know later today if that's ok.

rooftop59

Sounds good man but don't get a divorce over it lol. U seem like a decent guy i would hate to break a family; I don't need that sell it that bad. Ha!

PSOVLSK

If she kills me and makes it look accidental, she'll collect life insurance so maybe she makes out okay

Because people don't know a deal when they see one.

I think its because there are about 5 active members left on the forum. And I haven't been very active myself so I can't complain. It doesn't really have anything to do with the layout, just a busy time of life.

I am in conversation with one member who has first dibs, and if he turns it down its going on the 'gon.

and someone who will guarantee it's in working order, unlike Fleabay.

Why buy from the bay when you have a Polkie you can trust? By the time the auction ends, you'll end up paying at least what he is asking, and you are buying from someone who knows how to pack.

He's got 54 posts. Don't encourage breaking the rules even though the system is broken.

Are you going to buy it? Rooftop has had it on here long enough for any member above 100 posts to snag it. Who has?

Remember, in the end, this is a service for our members. If nobody here is going to buy it that isn't "breaking the rules", then who are we to stop a good member from getting money in his pocket? That is RT's decision and his decision alone.


For what its worth, I support the 100 post rule. However, now that its open for all to see, I don't care who buys it as long as our contributing members have the opportunity to snag it first.

OK, I'll give you that. I just don't think a google search should give people access to the FM. Just my .02.

Agreed, but you know how likely that scenario is with Vanilla.

Hey, #rooftop59, if your dibs-guy passes, I'll take it. Can't believe this is still here either.

I'm just trying to see if I can land a deal. Kinda like DSkip did when he bought from someone other than the OP.

Good luck!
I see past sales of around $140 plus shipping so not much difference.
if you want to increase chances of getting it cheaper, I suggest sniping.
