About

Description

From the house of Ooberpad arrives the power-packed Parasound HINT 6 Halo Integrated Amplifier. Parasound's award-winning Halo Integrated Amplifier would seem to be a hard standard to meet. But Parasound's new HINT 6 is an improved version of the globally renowned Halo Integrated Amplifier. After the original Halo Integrated Amplifier, hit the market, it quickly gained a popular name for itself - "HINT" in the Parasound community, and that name is now adopted in the new model as the HINT 6. The remarkable sonic quality and musicality of the original Halo Integrated (HINT) carry on in the HINT 6. The new model is feature-packed with Burr-Brown volume control with easy-to-read front panel display. It is also packed with an upgraded USB receiver along with the plug-and-play functionality for Windows and Mac, a second optical input, increased phono gain, superlative channel separation, and some high-value refinements to its aesthetics.
