Parasound P/LD-2000

The P/LD 2000 is a masterpiece. Inside are gold plated
boards. All twenty relay switches are 24K gold plated.
Vishay and Caddock resistors. All silver internal wiring.
S/N level is at 120 db's. {WOW!!} A true dual mono design.
This is the best preamplifier ever made under Two grand.
And now the frosting on the cake. 92,0000 microfarads of
storage capacitance!!! It is very very rare to find one
for sale.

Several days ago I asked Daltonlanny if we consider selling his P/LD 2000, since he had planned to buy the
JC-2. I asked him when he purchased the piece and he wrote back that he bought it several months ago. I Discovered a
post he wrote on Audiogon over a year ago that he owns a
P/LD 2000. That sure is more than several months ago. It has always been a strict policy by manufactuers in this industry never to disclose any info prior to production to
protect their design from competitors and to prevent a
consumer rush. Mr. Dalton needs to slow down and cool his hot temper. The JC-2 will have the features of the P/LD
2000 and thats it. The high end piece that is a prototype
for the JC-2 is far more expensive than the P/LD 2000 which is why the JC-2 will retail at least a thousand dollars more. Mr. Dalton is not a dealer and does not play
golf with Richard Schram. I would take his statements with
a grain of salt.

Why I didn't own a P/LD 2000? At the time the unit was on the market, I had a far more costly system in my home
consisting of all Counterpoint components, Camber speakers,
a pro studio Denon player, and MIT cables. The quality of
that system was head and shoulders above Parasound.
