What I'm selling:
Parasound AVC-2500 Processor
Parasound HCA-855A Amp (5.1)
Adcom GFA 535L (2.0)
This is not new equipment! It does not provide streaming media connectivity and all the other modern bells and whistles routinely found today on even the least expensive equipment. And forget the V in A/V*. The processor uses 100% legacy video connectors - no HDMI. Not that Parasound did video badly - they did not, but their core competency was and remains rock-solid sound reproduction. For the last 16 years I have enjoyed amazing room-filling sound from this setup. It has pushed speakers from ancient and inefficient Acoustic Research AR-3s to Martin Logans, and never required anything near full throttle. For detailed specs and information, see:

The simple work-around for legacy video connections is an Octava 4X1 HD Video Switch model HD41-ARC which I will include* in the sale along with miscellaneous cables. The AVC-2500 remote worked fine right up until I took the photos - and promptly quit. Fresh batteries did not help. Worse case - a replacement may be needed and is available direct from Parasound @ $100. Or use your own universal remote. The Adcom GFA 535L served as a Zone amp. Note the A / B or A+B function.

Questions for the seller |
---|
Are you willing to sell just the hca-855 or only the whole lot? My preference is to sell everything to a single buyer. If that does not happen, I may consider selling items individually. |
