Adcom GFA-5802 -vs- Parasound HCA-3500 Amps?


More opinions please:
Has anyone out there owned both the Adcom GFA-5802 300 watts per channel power amp and the Parasound HCA-3500 350 watts per channel power amp?
If so, how do they compare sonically head-to-head?
What are the sonic advantages and disadvantages of each when compared to one another?
Thanks in advance.

Your point about "dual mono" is well taken. Look at another excellent Parasound design, the 2200ii. It uses independent torrodial transformers, one for each channel. After the transformers, the power supplies are completely separate.

The only thing both channels share is a common chassis and a power cord.
