Among the ones you mentioned, Aragon is probably the best amp. Parasound tend to break down. Aragon sounds better than Nad.
Need new amp for Dali Ikon 6s
Hi Everyone.
My 22 year old NAD 906 just went on the fritz. I was thinking of replacing it anyway.
This is for my PC nearfield system. The Dalis are 6ohm w/ 91.5dB. Recommended power up to 150w but I know they will easily take 250w. Pre-amp is Parasound 2100.
I'm looking at:
> Parasound HCA-1500: 205w; used 9/10; about $500 incl ship on AGon
> Parasound HCA 1000A: 125w; demo; about $505 incl ship
> Aragon 2002: 200w; used 9/10; $525 incl ship on AGon
> NAD C272: 150w; dealer demo; $446 incl ship
> Outlaw 2200 M-Block: 200w mono; $674 pair; free ship direct from Outlaw / used 8/10 $568 pr incl ship on AGon
I'd like to pair a Parasound w/ my pre-amp, but its not that important. The Aragon is the darling of various reviews and forum comments. NAD is a workhorse, but don't know how the sound rates against the others. The Outlaw
monos seem like a great value.
Any comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
