Which integrated amp would you pick?

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

@2psyop - are you saying that that $3500 of Parasound (A 21 and P3) separates are as good at the $7,000 M6500i? That would certainly swing my thinking towards Parasound, although I haven’t heard the Halo Integrated. Just curious, as I’m in the market for an integrated but am also considering looking at separates.

Thanks, Scott

Thanks everyone for their input...and yes I specifically asked about the Parasound  Halo. Thanks George and stereo 5 for your experience with this integrated.

Neither!I would go with an all tube integrated like the PrimaLuna Dialogue!

    O.K. I’ve tried Parasound Halo Int. and I really can’t justify the price of 2.5K. Of course, Parasound is an excellent amplifier but I really don’t need that power and extra features.


    What’s bit you since Jan 2016 that has made you a Parasound Int. Halo hater?

    BTW: you can get them in the US for just under $2k if you shop around. In Australia they’re over $4k


    Cheers George

    I have a HINT in a third system and it's a great swiss army knife of an integrated.  If you can use all that it packs, $2,500 (new) is a relative bargain.

    I have just converted to tubes recently in my main system, though, and would have to agree with freediver that a PrimaLuna would be a great option.  Every now and then a a nice used/demo unit pops up here on A'gon but they move pretty fast so gotta keep your eyes open.
