Price wise....the previous post with Nuforce STA200 is a great amp but only RCA's. S300 I believe is the best sounding choice out of all three choices mentioned. I have all three and looking to sell my Parasound Halo A23(black).
Yet another Amp recommendation needed
I'm in need of a recommendation for a SS amplifier for my office system. I'm thinking either a PS Audio Stellar S300 or a Parasound A23 Halo. Other gear in my office rig include:
Audio Research SP-9 Mk. III preamp
ELAC Uni-Fi UB5 speakers
I'll probably good with either amp, but any of you out there have any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

Now $499 on Amazon and Audio Advisor. I love mine http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/optoma-nuforce-sta200-power-amplifier/ |
I knew somebody that went from the A23 to the Stellar 300. The PS Audio Stellar is a Class D amp with a Class A input stage. The A23 is a Class A/AB amp also with a Class A input stage (I believe). The feedback I got was that the Parasound was very warm and inviting sounding, but the PS audio had more attack and clarity. I guess it really depends what your looking for. Both could be good choices. |
