Parasound
Parasound’s mission couldn’t be more different. Simply put, they offer the most performance for the money by finding the sweetest spot between price and diminishing returns. Everything they do at Parasound is customer-centric because that’s how they define value. When they develop a new product they take the carpenter’s adage “measure twice, cut once” to the extreme. Each new model is tested, improved and re-tested under worst-case conditions.
It comes to market only when it is a finished product that’s ready to stand the test of time. In fact, they don’t really know how long their amplifiers last because people write to thank them because the Parasound amp they purchased in the mid-’80s still works perfectly 30 years later.
When you choose Parasound you’re getting uncompromised quality for every model. They all use the best parts and each must pass their strictest quality assurance. They wouldn’t have it any other way.
As a nationally recognized leader in the field of high-end audio and home theater, Overture is a proud dealer of Parasound audio components, selling customers the best audio components from Parasound in Sales Tax Free Delaware.
