    Enough to drive LSi9s and LSiC, without sacrificing quality. Something in line with quality of Adcom, Parasound, etc.

    i see the published ratings on the speakers
    is 20 - 200 watts range.

    your current amp delivers
    125 into 8 ohms
    200 into 4 ohms.

    certainly have alot of options available to you

    Yea I absolutely love my HCA-1000A. However, with plans to get an LSiC, I need another channel or mono to power that baby. I figured I might get better return upgrading to a 3 channel rather than buying a monoblock for $150-175. Who knows. Any suggestions?

    I have an Adcom GFA-6000 I could trade. It's actually a 5 channel amp, but the back right channel doesn't work. This amp is currently powering my 1C's, but it's also powered my LSiC and LSi 15's. I think an even trade would be fair, but we can discuss that further if we need to do so.

    I misread your original post. I thought you were asking $150 for the Parasound. After a little research, I see that my Adcom would not make an even trade.

    No problemo. I ended up buying a mono for the center. I am no longer looking. Thanks for the offer however.
