Ghosthouse:
My thoughts went to the Parasound Halo as well. It's also a Stereophile Class A recommended component, and is thousands of dollars less than any of their other Class A rated integrated amps. Such a powerhouse too, at 160 wpc into 8 ohms and 240 into 4 ohms.
Also has built-in DAC accepting multiple inputs and formats, headphone amp, good phono stage for both MM and MC, and analog bass management circuit.
