    I've been on the fence for another amp, one being an A23 to possibly replace my B&K 200.2 or at least compare. .....man, sure looks nice in black.

    Another helpful tip: the A23 can be bridged to run mono with 8 ohm speaker loads and will put out 400 watts per amplifier in that configuration.

    It is plenty powerful enough when run as a two channel amp, including anything up to the RTi12 model.

    Both good points Dskip and Emlyn... Currently I am using 2 x A23's to power my Usher Mini Dancers in bridged mono modes. I have switched back and forth with the A21 and the A23's and find this to be very sweet and laid back for the Ushers. I am sure i could easily drive them with 1xA23 as well. Like all Parasound products... built like a shick brithouse.

    Well, it is cheaper than the MF KW500 route (that's me self rationalizing out loud)....

    This would be nice to have but probably not worth it since I have the Rti A9's.
    Marantz SR 5010
    Kenwood DR-V5070
    Polk RTi A9- Mains
    CSI A6- Center

    Panamax M4300-PM Power Conditioner

    Working on updating my set up :rolleyes:

    Bump, I will also throw in Pangea AC-14SE power cord (1 meter). That would make this Halo A23 a $650.00 dollar value. This is as good as its going to get.

    Hello sir, just wondering you still have the unit for sale? I know you would like 100 posts but I am very new here, I do have 100% feedback on ebay, and Headfi - Have purchased / sold many 1k+ USD audio items

    thank you

    sak, it is still for sale. You don't have to have 100 posts (I revised that) but you do have to have many more than 1. I do appreciate your interest.

    Ok no problem - I understand, yes lets hold off on it, I was trying to go with A23+ P5 combo, but maybe I am better off buying the Integrated Halo

    thank you

    That is what I was running the A23/P5, very nice combo.
