I' ve become a big Parasound fan after acquiring an A21, and then a P7. Their house sound is great, a gorgeous midrange with detailed highs that aren't harsh. It was so much better than the Emotiva and NAD stuff I had and really brought my speakers to life.
I haven't heard the Integrated, but my research on Parasound and the owner, Richard Schram, revealed a top notch company that will not put out compromised gear. I actually considered selling my Parasound set up to fund buying the Integrated, as I probably don't use half the watts of the A21, but in the end decided the sound would probably be pretty much the same.
Hope this helps.
