Which integrated amp would you pick?


Musical Fidelity M6 or Parasound Halo? Any thoughts would be very much appreciated.

David Belles has a great reputation, and of course he has been in business for a long time. I was going to look in to the Aria myself, but I may opt for the Heed Obelisk over the Belles. As much as I hate to say it, there is just so little press on Belles. I already got in to, and out of a 2nd system fairly recently. So resale is important to me. That said, I have no problem believing the Aria is a winner. I believe it is around 2K US.

timlub- Take a look. Plenty of reviews. I think the discrepancy in power is because the last iteration of the Obelisk (mk.2) had an optional outboard PS. With the PS, the power rating was 10-15 watts higher. Glad you are enjoying the Belles.

I don't want to steal the thunder from the OP, but of course it's better to audition if you can. In this case, I have had a brief listen to the Obelisk and
also the Rega Brio. In my case, there is travel (6 hr minimum), and time involved in auditioning. In this price range, I'm thinking just give one a shot.
joey54- Did you consider trying the Obelisk? It appears you were at Johnny R's ....?   (-:  -Don
