Thanks George,  Off hand what brand/model would be a good upgrade from the Parasound Halo?  I was also considering the Pass Labs 250.8.

Thanks

Pass is also Mosfet, I think.
Seeing now your looking at poweramps, a step up would be the JC1 Halo’s in high bias Class-A mode.

This is Stereophile's quote to the load the Montis present.
" Either way, that this speaker is a difficult load for the partnering amplifier to drive is compounded by the high electrical phase angle" 


Cheers George

Um, I think that's a really nice integrated. I'd suggest you look into your room acoustics if you haven't already. Contact GIK for great advice and products.

For the price of a new amp  you could get some serious improvements. :)

Best,

the X250.8 is awesome and will drive anything...way better than the Halo Integrated or the Hiato...way more expensive too, but a used one will hold it's value for a bunch of years...
