Sounds like BS from a dealer who wants to sell you a preamp. I use my JC 2 with a pair of JC 1 mono blocks, but then I don't care for tube artifacts. Both the JC 1 and 2 have gotten rave reviews and A ratings by Stereophile.
Parasound JC2 compatibility with Quicksilver v4's
Hi Everyone,
I am new at the forum, thanks in advance for any feedback.
I was about to purchase a used pair of Quicksilver v4's when the dealer told me that my preamp (Parasound JC2) was not going to be good enough for those amps, therefore I will not get the sonic advantages of the V4's. I am a little confused by his comment (I like the JC2), maybe somebody can provide some advise. I am now running the Parasound JC2 with a pair of Monarchy SE 100's V2 or a pair of Monarchy SM 70 Pro's, depends on music/mood.
I was also considering a pair of PrimaLuna monoblocks, I would like to have a good pair of tube monoblock amps.
Best to all,
Rob
