Any traffic on this forum?

[J.H.]

There has to be more parasound owners that care about the equipment than this. the last response was yesterday at 8AM. Rotel has much more traffic and that can't be right? J.H.

[nicholtl]

There are tons of Parasound owners around these parts. The only difference is, we have lives. =P

Oh, and Rotel is more "accessible" in terms of monetary factor.

[RobP]

Its true, us Rotel owners have no lives whatsoever. :rofl: Ok time for a nap...... :Z

Really? I read somewhere a few days ago that Parasound was "budget audiophile".

[r100gs]

Yes it has been very slow lately. I've been enjoying my stereo more everyday. When I first set it up, I was afraid the A21 and P3 were too laid back for me. Since then I've done a few things to try wake up my Joseph Audio RM25's. The best result so far has been my latest edition of a Chinese made cd player with a tube output. Wow is all can say. I now have the choice to play cd's three different ways: External Dac, Internal Dac and tube buffer. Oddly I like tube output the best. It has improved the bass response and treble response. The stereo imaging sounds so wonderful. I was afraid the tube output would make my system even more laid back. Go figure.

The Rotel forum has been in existence a lot longer, and is very strong here. We are the number one place on the net to talk Rotel. It's likely we could be the same for Parasound/Halo too at some point. You guys have to make it happen though, not me.

[mitch57]

I'm here. What do you want to talk about? My A51 kicks butt!

[J.H.]

How long has the Parasound forum been up and running? Also i would believe because of cost of product Rotel is more of a mass market product.I'm sure Rotel is great stuff though. J.H.

Some might say the "Classic" line is.

"Budget audiophile" I would think refers more to Outlaw, Sherbourne, or ATI.

[J.H.]

Agree Outlaw,Sherbourne thats more budget equipment. A processor/amp combo for $5,000 can't be considered budget eqiupment. It not something a person on a whim who wants to build a beginers HT would spend. J.H.

Well... The JC1s are $3,500 each. A 7-channel system with a C1 controller will set you back $30,500. That's not exactly budget now, is it? :B

Rotel is hardly mass market :lol: One major manufacturer (Pioneer, Yamaha, Denon etc) probably makes more units in one month than Rotel does in a year! :lol:

[J.H.]

I'm not picking a fight I'm sure rotel is nice stuff. Actually I love hearing new equipment and would like to hear the I think its the RSP-1098 processor. Theres not that many dealers that are close enough plus I don't want to waste a dealers time when I'm not going to buy. So I did not nean to offend sorry If I did. J.H.

[aud19]

Sorry if I gave the wrong impression there, I wasn't offended, I mostly thought it was funny... and innacurate... but mostly funny! The lack of volume compared to the "big boys" places them WAAAAY outside of mass market is all Just clearing that up, not "arguing" or "picking a fight" either :T

[Kingdaddy]

I'm here, but have been very busy trying to finish my center channel speaker project, I'm very slow, but I should be done this weekend.

[nicholtl]

Plenty O' Traffic Now, Boys!

[J.H.]

I'll take credit for this J.H.

[r100gs]

My A21 is so hot, it shoots sparks out the back when I turn it on.

[J.H.]

I'm no expert but I think you have a problem. I would suggest not turning it on and taking it to a authorized service center or the dealer you bought it from. J.H.

[nicholtl]

Or just save it for July 4th.

Damn, And I thought I had something special going on. :W

[RebelMan]

J.H. You want traffic??? How about if I start a nasty rumor that Parasound/Halo gear are actually re-badged Rotel rejects? I'm sure that will get a few boys (posts) stirred up. :twisted:

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

(jk... Chris, Peter, Nick, Mitch...)

[J.H.]

It will certainly piss some people off but thats forced traffic. Where the hell is everyone again? J.H.

[JamesE]

Kingdaddy,

When do we get to see pictures?

[Chris D]

Heheheeee... 25 replies. Yes, methinks that qualifies as "traffic" in the Parasound forum.

I'll have to ask whether the "spark" mod is an authorized Parasound modification.

[nicholtl]

Whatever that mod is, I'd like it on my dual Gibson truck exhaust tips please.

[Kingdaddy]

Kingdaddy,

When do we get to see pictures?

I posted them over at the DIY forum, but here is the link anyway.
