Purely out of my own curiosity, and, for the avoidance of doubt, not in connection with Keith's selection of the Ampzilla 2000 Mk. II for his system, has anyone compared directly in the same system the Ampzilla 2000 Mk. II with the Parasound JC1?

I was pretty impressed with how good the Ampzilla monos sound in Keith's system, for $5,500. The Parasound JC1, which also has been around a very long time, also has a very good reputation. JC1s are available in good condition used for under $5,000. (I bought a pair of JC1s last year just in case I ever want to experiment with Wilson Audio Subsonic subwoofers. The JC1 was David Wilson's personal amplifier of choice to drive Wilson Audio subwoofers, and if they are David Wilson's choice to drive Wilson Audio subwoofers, then they are my choice to drive Wilson Audio subwoofers. See how easy some high-end audio decisions can be?)

So, has anyone compared directly in the same system the Ampzilla 2000 Mk. II with the Parasound JC1?
