Parasound Halo HINT6 integrert forsterker med DAC

Ny og forbedret!

Parasound HINT 6 er en ytterligere forbedret versjon av den meget populære Halo Integrated. Etter at den originale Halo Integrated Amplifier ble introdusert ble den raskt kjent som "HINT" i Parasound fellesskapet, og navnet benyttes også på den nye modellen.

Alt i en boks

Med Parasound HINT 6 har John Curl-designet en integrert forsterker på 160 watt per kanal (240 watt @ 4 ohm). HINT 6 har hjemmekino-bypass-funksjon, 2.1-kanals analog subwoofer justering, en dedikert hodetelefon forsterker, samt MM/MC phono-forsterker.
En ESS Sabre32 Reference DAC dekoder et bredt spekter av digitale musikkfiler via to optiske, en koaksial og en ny oppgradert USB-inngang - nå med plug and play-støtte for Windows 10 i tillegg til Mac. Den asynkrone USB 2.0-inngangen støtter PCM opptil 384 kHz / 32-biters DSD256 og DoP DSD bit strømmer. De koaksiale og optiske inngangene godtar PCM opp til 192 kHz / 24-bit.
Parasound HINT 6 har en helt ny Burr-Brown analog volumkontroll som reduserer støynivået, forbedret venstre-høyre separasjon på et hvilket som helst volumnivå. Samme volumkontroll har et lettlest front-display.
Andre kretsforbedringer er en forbedret op-amp i forforsterker delen, forbedret L-R kanalseparasjon, og økt forsterkning for MC- og MM-phono-inngangene.

"I can’t think of another integrated amplifier that offers so many options and has such solid, generous sound. Recommended."
