I had both a Sunfire Signature II 600 and a Parasound A21 at one time. The Parasound crushed the Sunfire in sound quality; it wasn't even close. A PS Audio HCA-2 also clobbered the Sunfire, and the A21 clobbered it. These gaps weren't close. And I prefer tube amps to the A21 (though the A21 is a very nice unit at its price-point). Based on that experience, I would never consider another Carver product.
