Audio advisor and Constellation amplifiers

Hi taters,  that is very expensive to say the least,  that's the price of the stereo amplifier? , I do not understand why that amplifier would cost that,  I would have one of the Dan D Agostino momentum amplifiers before I would that Constellation Hercules 2 stereo amplifier. 

That is the price of the mono blocks. I don't know if they make that same version in a stereo amp.

In the latest Absolute Sound Robert Harley reviews the amp and matching pre-amp.  The combined cost for both are 260k.

I agree with you the price is ridiculously expensive. I am always amazed that people buy such expensive gear.

I figured someone would point out that Parasound is made in "China", but actually it's made in Taiwan, a cut above anything made in Hong Kong or the Mainland.

Taiwan has been home to some of the most sophisticated electronics manufacturing for many many years. Most high end computer motherboards and video cards are made there. The complexities of these products put most audio products to shame.

Hi taters,  the Constellation site has the Hercules 2 stereo amplifier on there,  cheers. 

I will check it out. Thanks.
