    chumlie,tonyb..Thanks guys,First I was looking at the Halos,as you guys know I have been moving up the chain on my set up for some time now and the A21 is next on my list for my two channel set up.I wanted this unit for the HT input also the two subs in's and outs.When I got too looking at the built of this unit and what has been but into it the HALO didn't have the inputs or outputs I needed.I also look at ACOM's GFP-815 nice that it is, still didn't have the in's and out's I needed.

    By decent, would you say comparable to a $200-$300 separate phono pre?

    I've been looking at upgrade options from the hk3490, which does everything fairly well, and don't know if the Parasound Classic would be enough of an upgrade.
