Parasound HCA-1205A

Since I seldom use my HT anymore, I've decided to sell this and use the funds to upgrade my 2-channel system. I've owned this for probably 8-10 years, but the last couple of years it's had very limited use. It's in good shape...some scratches on the faceplate. Here's a couple of links with more information. It's big and heavy,I'd expect shipping to be in the $50-60 range (obviously depending on your location.)

This will not come with a power cord unless I can find a generic cord around here somewhere. I might have a Pangea AC-9 available, but I may end up having to use it in a different location since I sold off all of my power cords.

$250 + shipping CONUS

    Great opportunity on the Parasound 1205A, Paul. I really like the HCA series. Great for combo TV and music systems, and not a bad performer for a solid little 2ch, either. Very nice condition, too.

    We didn’t discuss that option, but I plan to be there.

    I would love to, but this is the summer of travel for me. About to leave for Athens for 8 days, then AZ for our niece's wedding for 2 weeks (we can both work from anywhere), then another conference in Portland, then NC for the family vaca for 9-10 days including a stop in Nashville (we've never been so I'm pretty stoked), and then probably my annual conference in Boulder in August, although that's not confirmed yet. Needless to say, I can't just throw in another trip for grins and giggles if I want to keep from bankrupting the domestic tranquility account...

    I can’t guarantee it, but I think this is the amp I had when Doug made the IC’s for me.
