Parasound A51 or Mcintosh MC205?


I have 2 Adcom's 5802 & 5503 that are connected to a Klipsch Reference II system. I'm looking to replace the Adcoms and go to a 5 channel amp. The Parasound and the Mac are on my list. I also have a B&K reference 50 that I also plan to replace with a new processor (maybe Marantz). Any thoughts on the Amps?

I have an MC205 with a pair of HALO A23s....connected to a Marantz AV8801, that replaced a McIntosh MX-121.

Save the money and get the Marantz. As for amps, they don't sound very different. The Halo's get A LOT warmer though than the Mac, so if your equipment is in tight spaces be careful...
