Default Modding Parasound Halo A21

Hi

I'd love to have JC-1 monoblocks, but these are big (like two of my A21), and I do not like their 35W constant power consumption..

A21 is fabulous, I compared it against two much pricier amps and still preferred A21

What I would like to improve:
imaging, more transparency and lower noise floor..
and Class A bias.. now is it 10W? 15W would be likely better..

I like the sound signature, so I merely looking for 'more of the same'..
I am not so strong in electronics, so the advises here I will bring to my engineer..

thanks in advance,
--Michael

Like I mentioned in a previous message about Parasound amps , anything you do will likely make them sound worse and compromise their longevity. Those are fantastic amps just as they are. I know it's a DIYers nightmare, but I wouldn't do a thing to them.
