Parasound HINT 6 Stereo Integrated Amplifier Black
The HINT 6 Integrated Amplifier is an improved version of the Halo Integrated Amplifier. The Halo model began to be called HINT by the company shortly after release, and now this house name is reflected in the new version of the amplifier. The amplifier has a Burr-Brown volume control and a convenient front panel display. A USB input has been added for owners of Windows and Mac computers. The developers also added an optical input, increased the gain of the built-in phono stage and improved channel separation.
The Parasound HINT 6 utilizes the same powerful power amplifier designed by John Curl. This 160 watts per channel (240 watts at 4 ohms) amplifier is based on Curl's Class A / AB linear circuit topology found in Parasound's renowned stand-alone amplifiers. These capabilities are further enhanced with a home theater bypass function, 2.1 channel analog bass control, a dedicated high-power headphone amplifier, and an MM/MC phono stage. The HINT 6 volume control replaces the original model's motorized potentiometer and sliding mechanical contacts with an electronically controlled Burr-Brown analog resistor.
