9 year old Parasound Jc 1s or new Bel Canto 1000m monos?

I'm starting to assemble a new system. Budget $15000 to $20000. I'm leaning toward Triton Ones but I'm open to all suggestions. 25'x12' room. I'm a newbie to this stuff and appreciate the knowledge of the people on here.  No tubes. I'm just not interested in the maintenance. Any opinion appreciated.

Start with which amps are preferable. Opinions?

If you do get Triton Ones (and you should, I just sold mine, they're killer) you don't need big amps. Good amp yes, but you're just pushing their small drivers. Check out van Alstine integrated.

Parasound Jc1's anytime over ClassD amps.


Cheers George

Agree with Georgelofi, plus those are already broken in. Turn on and enjoy.

Thanks guys. Any opinions on the Tritons? I just heard Dynaudio Confidence 1 on stands and those things really turned me around on stand mounted. Wow!

Scott, I may not need big amps but do they hurt?
