Parasound JC1 vs Plinius sb301


There is a lot of great press for both brands, but it doesn't seem like anybody has compared these two models. Used these are about the same price, and they both put out heat and make the utility companies happy.

I've got a pair of XRT 28 speakers and they are rated to 1200, so power is welcomed for dynamic passages and to provide some depth. 

I listen to everything from Dave Matthews to Pantera to Andreas Vollenweider, so I appreciate good sound across the entire spectrum and not just great bass or highs. 

For those who have listened to them, I can't find much about their soundstage - are they more forward (row D - like Klipsch) or more recessed (like Levinson)?

I know there's a lot of other great amps but these are the two I'm focusing on.

Thoughts?

That's great to hear, and I appreciate the comparison. I had a Levinson 332 so I feel I have a good understanding of what you're saying.
Thank you!
