    Cliff,

    I've never owned Parasound gear and only heard a rig driven with it (Parasound) once. So, I can't offer a comparison.

    If specs help in a comparison, here goes:

    Gain (voltage): 30 dB
    Power Output: 100WPC/8 ohm load, 170WPC/4 ohm load
    Freq. Response: 5 Hz to 100 kHz, min.
    Signal-to-Noise (20-80 kHz, ref 85 W): 92 dB
    Distortion:
    1% THD at 100W, 1 kHz, 8 ohm load
    0.7% THD at 10W, 1 kHz, 8 ohm load
    0.3% THD at 1W, 1 kHz, 8 ohm load
    Output Impedance: 0.9 ohms, typical
    Max. Current Available: 25 amps, r.m.s, measured 1 kHz gated ON for 20 mS, OFF for 480 mS, into 0.1 ohms
    Damping factor: 8.9 referenced to 8 ohms at 1 kHz
    DC Offset: 30 mV, long and short term
    Input Impedence: 100K ohms
    Signal Polarity (Absolute Phase): Non-inverting

    One *bump*, then it goes in one of the HT rigs as serious overkill.
