    Welcome, Jay! A lot of us put the gear we currently use in our "signature", which you can edit from your profile.

    I hope you get the Parasound amp, and enjoy it. I really enjoy all five of mine. :)

    I'm not sure, but I bet there's a couple SDA experts in the house. :smile:

    Edit: I got curious and found this:
    http://forum.polkaudio.com/discussion/74435/polk-sda-srs-and-parasound-hca-3500-amp

    So looks ok to use if Doro says so.

    Days are cooler and shorter, that means less outside time and more music time!

    Make this beauty yours and discover things about your music you never noticed.

    8 months and 4 pages later, this is still for sale? Somebody get some scratch together and keep this in the "family"! This amp is a beast.

    Yeah, not sure what's up. Selling like hotckakes when I bought mine...Seems several interested persons bought new Emotiva's instead of this, citing the warranty, but I've never had an old Parasound go bad on me.

    She no speaky good English, hope its legit
    2 channel: Anthem 225 Integrated amp; Parasound Ztuner; TechnicsTT SL1350; Vincent PHO-8 phono pre; Marantz CD6005 spinner; Polk SDA2BTL's; LAT International speaker cables, ZU Mission IC's and power cables all into a PS Audio Dectet Power center.

    Other; M10 series II, M7C's, Hafler XL600 amp, RB-980BX, Parasound HCA-1500 amp , P5 preamp, all in storage. All vintage Polk have had crossover rebuilds and tweeter upgrades.

    The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

    It is imperative that we recognize that an opinion is not a fact.

    Imagine making politics your entire personality.
