Integrated vs. Separates on a Budget


$3000 is my max.

TIA

klimt

The Parasound  New Classic integrated has an inboard dac, while the Halo (Parasound makes both integrated and separates under "Halo" & "New Classic") seems not to.

 

The entry level Hegel, the H95, supports streaming like AirPlay, as I think does the rest of the line.  Looks like it goes for 2000 new. As you go up the line, the wpc increases from the 95's 60, which might be nice for your 91db speakers, depending on your listening habits.  Lots of press on Hegel, see what you think.

Thanks jd!

Forgive me if you answered this, but which integrated amp do you recommend that has enough power and the features I"m looking for?

Also, that's in my budget.

What do you think of the NAD c388?
