Parasound halo JC2 what a joke


Had a jc2 power button fail because the glue that mounted it on fell off ! I guess they glue the input and power buttons on to the face plate . So I sent it out to get fixed , $175.00 with shipping and the repair shop put a small scratch in the face plate . The repair shop is like that must have been there I didn't do it . I call parasound and talked to the owner he said he would talk to the repair shop and call me back . 2 weeks later I called him back and he thinks i'm pulling a fast one on him or something ! If I dinged the front I would have said put a new 1 on . I drive a new caddy I think I can afford it ass$#@# .

I purchased a demo Parasound CD1 from Audio Advisor about six months ago.One day I turn it on and there is no right channel.Of course I am more than a little upset and disappointed,but I am cool and call AA and ask them about the warranty and they instruct me to call Parasound.I called and spoke to someone and supplied my information and the nature of the failure.I was not sure what to expect and had read the conditions of the warranty where they can have you send the unit to an authorized repair facility of their choice.During the course of a pleasant and professional conversation I was instructed to send it to San Francisco,i then asked if they could supply a "call tag" for FedEx to pick up the box and I was told they would email a label and I could drop it off at a FedEx desk at Staples and that I did.
Much to my surprise,less than a week after I shipped the box,it arrives back,repaired and sounding as great as it did before the failure.Funny that the second day I had the unit back and up and running it would not eject a CD.I called and spoke to the same tech and he told me how to dislodge the stuck CD.I had the opportunity to thank him for the incredibly quick turnaround time on the repair,the fastest ever from any Audio company I had ever dealt with,and this includes some much smaller companies with great reputations and far less traffic.Parasound got it right for me in record time and they deserve some praise!
