I have decided to separate my Parasound C2 Controller and 5 channel amp as opposed to selling them as a pair. They will be listed on Audiogon tomorow, but Polkie prices will still be honored.
I am the second owner of this amp. I bought this from another Polkie (Emlyn) about two years ago. This amp does not have a scratch! It is in great physical and operating system. The A52 12 volt trigger cable, original manuals, boxes and packaging material. Here are some of the specs from Parasound:
Here are some of the specs and features of the A52:
Continuous power output:
125 watts RMS x 5, 20 Hz - 20 kHz, 8 Ω, all channels driven
225 watts RMS x 5, 20 Hz - 20 kHz, 4 Ω, all channels driven
Current capacity:
30 amperes peak per channel
Power bandwidth:
5 Hz - 100 kHz, +0/-3 dB at 1 watt
Total harmonic distortion:
< 0.2 % at full power
IM distortion: balanced 16 V rms
< 0.04 %
Slew rate:
> 130 V/µsecond
Dynamic headroom:
> 1.5 dB
Interchannel crosstalk:
> 78 dB at 1 kHz;
> 63 dB at 20 kHz
Input sensitivity:
1 V for 28.28 V, THX Reference Level
Input impedance:
47 k Ω unbalanced; 94 k Ω balanced
S/N ratio:
113 dB, input shorted, IHF A-weighted
Damping factor:
> 1000 at 20 Hz
Voltage:
110V - 120V
Dimensions:
17-1/4" w x 7-5/8" h x 19-3/4 " d, 5-1/4 " h without feet
Net weight: 50 lb.
• Circuitry designed by legendary John Curl
• THX Ultra2 certified
• High bias Class A/AB operation
• Balanced inputs with discrete circuits and XLR connectors
• Direct Coupled - no capacitors or inductors in signal path
• Complementary MOSFET driver stage and JFET input stage
• 20 beta-matched 15 amp, 60 MHz bipolar output transistors
• 1.4 kVA encapsulated toroid power transformer with independent
secondary windings for each channel
• 100,000 µF power supply filter capacitance
• DC Servo and relay protection circuits
• AC present, channel status, high temperature indicators
• Heavy-duty 24k gold-plated 5-way speaker terminals
• Gold-plated RCA input jacks; ground lift switch
• Auto turn-on by 12v trigger or audio signal, 12v trigger out
• 3u Chassis, carry handles, rack mounting adapter included
I am selling this pair of exceptional components for $1,300 which includes shipping and PalPal fees. I will accept cash or check from members who are my personal acquaintances. I will reduce my price for local pickup and PayPal accordingly with a cash or check. This sale is offered to anyone Club Polk member who has been a member for a year or more, has at least 100 posts and established feedback on the Club Polk E-Trader. Even then, I reserve the right to refuse sale.
I have exception feedback and integrity with sales and purchases on this Forum. I have stood behind all of my sales and refunded 100% of money when equipment has been damaged in shipping. Contact me via PM if you have any questions. No dibs! Cash talks!
Enough BS, how about some pictures????
