I'm using the Parasound 2100/2250 in a 21' x 12' room mainly for two-channel but also connected to my AV system with sub-woofer. I'm also using the phono stage of the 2100. The by-pass feature is a great option to separate home theater listening from 2-channel. Parasound, the company, is wonderful to deal with; I've asked questions and always received a quick and full response (even from the President, Richard Schram).
I've just upgraded my speakers from standmount Mission 762s to floorstanding Scan-Speak-driver-based speakers. The Parasound units handle everything with ease, low noise and lots of control. It is easy to make adjustments, such as gain and sub-woofer management so would highly recommend them. I've only compared them with high-end products in the showroom when I bought them but in my room the sound is wonderful (at least to my old, inexperienced ears).
