| Pass X Series Preamps with JC-1 Monoblocks? I will be using balanced XLR cables to run from the preamp to the JC-1's. | |
| Why all these JC-1's for sale? To some of you audiogoners out there who have sold their JC-1's: Since they are sold now:Could you tell us in all honesty why you sold them?What did you not like sonically or ergonomically, etc., about them?Thanks for your responses. | |
| Parasound PLD-2000 vs Parasound Halo P-3 Again, has anyone had the opportunity to compare these two preamps head-to-head?If so, what were the results, and their sonic strengths and weaknesses?Which would mate best with the Parasound Halo JC-1 monoblocks in your opinion? | |
| Emperical Audio Mods for Parasound Halo JC-1'S If you buy the JC-1's used like I did, the warranty is no longer a factor anyway...It is void.If you read the original warranty papers from Parasound they state that the warranty applies to the original purchaser only, and is not transferable to a... | |
| Emperical Audio Mods for Parasound Halo JC-1'S Thank you Fiddler!No, I was in no way slamming the JC-1's.They are exceptional amps! Just read my review of them. I am just a curious person like any audiophile is, especially when it comes to after-market mods.I cannot afford to have my JC-1's mo... | |
| Emperical Audio Mods for Parasound Halo JC-1'S Bob,I did not say or state that I wanted state-of-the art sound!I simply wanted to know if anyone out there has had their JC-1's modded by Empirical Audio, and wanted to know what the results were. Their ad claims dramatic improvements from their ... | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 Timo,In all due respect, I think you meant Mahandave instead of Krevzeik as the one criticizing the JC-1's.Krevzeik defended the JC-1's.Thanks Timo. | |
| Parasound Vs Adcom I agree with Timo:I would go with Parasound.I have tried both in my system, and the Parasound is better all around. I am currently looking for a used Parasound P/LD 2000 preamp to go with my Parasound Halo JC-1 monoblock amps until the high-end Pa... | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 As a very satisfied owner of the exceptional JC-1 monoblock amps, I must defend them from the undeserving attack about the build quality, and parts quality by the first responder to this thread!The JC-1's have no "junk" parts on the inside or outs... | |
| Best Line Stage Preamp? The Placette Active is actually a "no gain" preamp.The two output amplifiers only lower the output impedance to a very low level to improve accuracy of the signal transfer. | |
| Placette RVC review in Stereophile CTC Blowtorch is a HIGH-END preamp made by CTC Builders: John Curl, Carl Thompson, and Bob Crump.It is an active preamp all the way, and is very highly regarded by its owners and by a couple of reviewers as being the best available.It has two chas... | |

| Which Solid-State Preamp under $7,000.00 New? Keith,I read literature about the HL-1 on your website and in Music Directs [I think?]Catalog back in January.Thanks,Lanny | |
| Review: Parasound Halo JC-1 Mono-Blocks Amplifier Gfroman,Tom munro, and Mdomnick:Thanks for your replies to my JC-1 review. I appreciate your replies and feed-back very much!I will post the results after my JC-1's are fully broken-in.Unfortunately, I will probably wait till Fall when the weather... | |
| Review: Parasound Halo JC-1 Mono-Blocks Amplifier Stehno, Timchen, and Tireguy:Thanks for your replies! I appreciate all of them.It takes about 2 months of 24/7 signal to fully break-in the JC-1's, just ask Bob Crump.Yes, the amplifier does make a huge difference in the sound of a system! I agree... |
