Advantages: Sound! It is “magical”, “magically fascinating” - such epithets suggest themselves when listening.!
They play with acoustics - clones of ProAc Response 2.5, there is also a tanooy studio.
The sound is clear, detailed, open. Very soft. With a good panorama and scale. Particularly impressive detail!
There is an high-pass filter and a 40 Hz 18 db cutoff - I didn’t cut it off - on proac up to 20 Hz I hear a tangible difference with it and without it.
Output on 2 pairs of acoustics, hence the ability to work with ac low resistance.
The amplifier is great, it's a pity the dollar jumped, and with it the price of this instance ...

Comment: Long watched the amplifiers company parasound. I had the opportunity to take a model 2125. It was very interesting if he would replay my ART SLA2 (studio amplifier). And damn it, the parasound left him no chance!
At 2125, I finally heard a distinct bass guitar and a barrel - not in the heap as before. (although in art sla2 I used to think the sound was biting, energetic, and detailed, but sometimes podguzhivayuschy bottom bass). As I suspected of art sla, there is a lot of bass, but little sense, and the detailing is weak compared to 2125.
I did not think that because of the "glands" there will be such a difference in sound!
I also had a Harman / Kardon stereo-amp initial modelka - a simple typical, as they say, Harman sound with an emphasis on the lower middle — comparing it with parasound 2125 is naturally meaningless.
He began to listen to jazz and foreign recordings with particular trepidation.

Advantages: The sound is assertive and dynamic, while without rigidity and coarseness, it is not at all tedious. For rock, metal and other dynamic styles, that's it. High output power and current allow you to successfully combine this amplifier with a variety of speakers, including low impedance and tight to buildup.
Disadvantages: Not identified.
Comment: I use it in pair with my native 2100. Excellent bundle at a reasonable price, with extensive switching and configuration capabilities.

Advantages: Play with AAD s-7. The best thing about this budget. Denon with a budget of 40+ rubles does not play in comparison.
THX for 25,000 rubles!

Disadvantages: Not.
Comment: After the receiver Yamaha - got real pleasure from the music! :)
