| Parasound halo JC2 what a joke The caddy issue would be warranty service I think. I had some engine issues back in the day due to the dealer overfilling the oil. I hope that's not the problem, but either way it shouldn't cost you a cent. Maybe you're redlining it too much! | |
| projector surge protection A UPC? Is that a uninterrupted power conditioner or something? If it's a wall wart, it's not uninterrupted, perhaps I misunderstand you.What I described above looks like a large power bar/surge supressor. It has an actual battery built in that sta... | |
| Parasound halo JC2 what a joke Okay, I just read the JC2 manual and found the Ventilation Requirements section which is included below:Because the JC 2 is a high current class A design it is always slightly warm to the touch, even when in standby. To reduce the chance of your J... | |
| Parasound halo JC2 what a joke You're saying a PRE AMP JC2, with no amp section, heats up to 90 degrees when it's off. You're also saying you have reliably measured this with some device, and it was bang on 90 degrees, and not some number you picked out of the air.I'd say you s... | |
| Parasound halo JC2 what a joke Another Parasound owner of both an amp and pre, neither get beyond mildly warm after a couple of hours playing time. | |

| Parasound halo JC2 what a joke I love these guys that spam the net whenever they feel slighted. It hasn't really been established how the button was attached, and whatever it is, it obviously isn't a problem. I've got 2 Parasound components that use the same button, I'm not los... | |
| Parasound halo JC2 what a joke Compared to much more expensive amps, maybe the 3D soundstage is better, perhaps I am underestimating. I remain skeptical, I'm kind of a show me guy. I do know that with good solid conductor cables I was able to improve the sound of my Parasound s... | |
| Counterfeit Audioquest Cables I'm sorry, but the thread theory just sounds like paranoia, a conspiracy where the manufacturer is secretly making/selling the pirated products themselves? That just doesn't add up.Higher end audio companies have their prices set at full retail wi... | |
| Parasound halo JC2 what a joke And so what? They come with a five year warranty, they sound amazing(Halo anyway), they look exceptionally good, and the president stands behind the products like no "mass market" brand I've ever seen. The OP was upset because the repair facility ... | |
| Parasound halo JC2 what a joke It's true, Parasound takes customer service very seriously. I've read many reports of people who have called Parasound and been passed to the president of the company, who has also personally answered emails to the company on the weekend.I've got ... | |
| Parasound halo JC2 what a joke Weird, but the moral of the story is, send it to Parasound to get it fixed, especially any Halo gear. | |
| Bryston 3B ST vs NAD C 355BEE I"ve also heard that Axiom M80's can be bright, not sure about the Monitor Audio silvers. The NAD is only 80 wpc I believe. | |
| Ascend Sierra Towers ribbon or dome Very nice, keep us posted on your impressions/experience. I found Ascend to have top notch service, they really seem to care about every last detail. |
