I really like the Parasounds, but they can be overly warm, maybe too warm for a background system? You know what you might really like if you dont need lots of volume is a Rogue or CJ integrated instead.
Looking to upgrade Adcom GFA555: Parasound?
This is my third system. Honestly, usually used for semi-active or background music.
Speakers are vintage Wilson Watt/Puppy 7. Source is an Eversolo dac/streamer Into a vintage Classe DR5 preamp. Amp currently is the aforementioned Adcom: bought it new while in college 40 years ago! The sound is pretty good, though a bit “small” and closed in.
Considering replacing the amp with a Parasound A21+. Thoughts? Am I wasting my time?
Target cost to upgrade this rig: less than $5K.
Thanks!
