Parasound HALO A23 Plus
A high bias Class A/AB power amplifier with 160W/Channel at 8 Ohms.
Review by Sound Stage Network - Parasound provides great value in the Halo A 23+ power amplifier. While their focus was clearly on sound and build quality rather than a long list of features, they’ve nonetheless provided enough flexibility to satisfy a variety of users. Some audio products impose their own signature on the sound of any recording played through them, but the Halo A 23+ consistently let the music itself shine through, reproducing it with a sound that was always detailed, accurate, and balanced. I was impressed by its quietness, the amount of power it could swiftly deliver, and its tremendous dynamic range.
