Dual mono integrated amps

I applaud the dual mono concept in integrateds, but it's not the same as mono blocks.  Separate chassis, separate power cords, even separate circuit breakers if you can arrange it.

That said, you can get fine sound from an integrated amp, and dual mono is one of the many techniques available to amp designers to improve sound quality.

To return to the original question, have you checked out the Parasound Hint 6?  Extremely versatile, with built-in phono & DAC sections, crossovers for subwoofing, Home Theater bypass...  A bit of a kitchen sink, but a great one box solution for many pieces in building a system.  You can always upgrade section-by-section.

The dual mono power amp was designed by John Curl.  A single power transformer is used.  I suspect that is the case(!) with most integrated amps - there's just not enough space for 2 of them.

In that case(!), to find out the best practice for dual mono-ism in that form factor/price range, just lift the cover on your integrated. I have full faith in Nelson Pass.
