Overview

More than a straight preamplifier, Parasound refer to the Halo P6 as your system's "command centre". With a host of digital inputs, an in-built phono stage with 2 MC gain options, home theatre bypass, adjustable gain subwoofer output, and 12v trigger out, and headphone amp, it's easy to see why. 

The onboard DAC to handle incoming digital signals uses the well regarded Sabre 9018 chip. 

Balanced connections in and out also include a subwoofer output. 

For those who like some EQ adjustment, tone controls for treble and bass are included on the fascia.
