Parasound Halo A21 + NewClassic 2125 (Mono) VS A31 for L/C/R


Hi there!

I have a question regards to powering my L/C/R - B&W CM10 S2s and CM Center 2 S2. Currently I have thee Parasound A21 powering L/R and Parasound NewClassic 2125 v.2 in bridged mono powering the Center.

While the A21 is rated at 250 watts/ch and the 2125 in bridged mono is rated at 400 watts, does this make my L/C/R way out of sync or barely noticeable? Will there be  significant difference if I bought an A31 to power all three instead? Btw, the A/V is an Anthem MRX720.

 

Thanks in advance.

The A21 and the A31 are better amps than the 2125 but your setup is just fine, you just have to get the levels right. I think an A31 would be an upgrade but only if you have money to spend on such things. 

You mean upgrade compared to the 2125 in bridged mono? The A31 is 250 w vs 2125 in mono is 400 w but I'm only worried about the sonic match.

You'll have plenty of power 250 wpc vs 400 is less than 3 db and the A31 has better power supplies.
