Parasound Halo - SimAudio Aurora or Bryston

Hello,

I have a new pair of Dynaudio S5.4 on the way, and am selling my Anthem MCA amps.

I was wondering what you prefer in the above amps?

Thanks

I'm about to sell mine. Why? Well, to buy a pair of the much more expensive Ayre MX-Rs. These are the only amps that could pry the JC1s out of my hands. They are that good. Disclaimer: mine have been slightly modified with Blowtorch-type internal wiring. They were Bob Crump's personal pair before he passed away last year.

What they do well, they do VERY well indeed, but they rob the music of life by bleaching harmonic color. The JC-1s do this to a much smaller degree, to the point where it's only just noticeable. Oh, and by the way, the JC-1s have both RCA and balanced inputs.
