JRDG Capri vs. Parasound JC-1


Has anyone compared these two preamps? What are strengths and weaknesses of each? Pros and cons? For me the size of the Capri is advantageous, as an example.
Seeking any and all comments concerning comparison or experience with either.

The Capri is a lot of preamp for the money. Slightly warm (found this out after comparing to a passive preamp), but in my system very good frequency extension and balance. Never compared it to a JC-2.
Seems like you have the synergy thing going with JRDG. Personally, I'd open up the JC-2 and give it a listen anyway, but maybe in your case leaving well enough alone is better.
