Parasound ZoneMaster 12, 12 x kanals effektforsterker

For mange år siden så Parasound at konkurrerende flerkanalsforsterkere tilbø lav effekt, manglet nødvendige bekvemmelighetsfunksjoner og til og med være upålitelige. Som Richard Schram (Direktør hos Parasound) sa: "første gang du besøker et jobbsted for å erstatte den upålitelige distribusjonsforsterkeren, taper du fortjenesten; andre gang mister du troverdigheten din. ZoneMaster-linjen til Parasound tilbyr det konkurrentene mangler. Den mest betydningsfulle ZM 12-forbedringen: Zone 1 (kanal 1 og 2) tilbyr en kraftig oppgradering til 120 watt per kanal i 8 ohm og 150 watt per kanal i 4 eller 2 ohm.
