| Parasound JC-1 power amplifier No offense, but:The parts that are inside the JC-1's are not "cheap off the shelf parts" by any stretch of the imagination.They were carefully choosen, and carefully matched together to sound their best. | |
| What power cord with the Cambridge Audio 840C? I had excellent results with the Signal Cable Magic Digital Reference Power Cord when I owned the 840c.It was also very inexpensive. | |
| Downgrading from JC-1's...which amp should I get? Wow,so many choices! I don't know how I am going to pick one.Thanks for your help. | |
| Marantz 8001SA vs. Cambridge 840C I have owned both, and wound up keeping the 8001.To my ears and in my system, the 8001 has a blacker background, more low level resolution, more space between instruments, and slightly more depth.The 840c is a touch smoother, and has a little more... | |

| Cambridge 840C, YES it is as good as the reviews Hi Audio_girl,I agree 100% with your conclusions on the 840c.I own the Marantz SA8001 and I am very happy with it.I also prefered the 8001 to the Onkyo DX7555,Marantz CD-5001, the Rega Apollo, and the Rega Saturn, plus it also plays SACD's.Not bad... | |
