parasound hca2205a or earthquake cinenova5

[livewire]

Please anyone w/a quick opinion on which amp to get I can get the parasound for 1200 shipped, and the earthquake for 1500 shipped. I'm running rti10's (front) fxi5's(surround),and a cs350(center).I have rti4's as rear suround, but plan on buying a two channel amp to replace and run my fronts in the future. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Did you find the Parasound on Audiogon? Cuz if so, I just sent him an offer. :\

As for the Cinenova (I'm assuming you're referring to the one on AVSForum), it's honestly overkill for your RTis. It puts out 300W @ 8ohms, and 600W @ 4ohms... Not to mention it's ENORMOUS.

You can never have too much power.

Parasound.

Amen! Plus you don't have to worry about upgrading for a very long time. Plus those RTi10's can handle up to 300watts with no problem.

Rock on!

Buy Both!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have fun, never heard a Parasound I did not like, or an earthquake for that matter, of course, I only ever heard one earthquake, but it sounded good that one time.

Either one will get the job done! And +1 for Mark, YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MUCH POWER!!! My amp is putting out 400wpc @8ohms!
