No the latest is the Hint 6 has a little window next to the volume and a couple of extra minor features, not much from what's been said. http://www.parasound.com/hint6.php Cheers George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TerryO Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 (edited) This is the one the few integrated ss amp that I would be more than happy to buy if I was in the market, having heard several in different systems I really think they punch well above their rrp, so at this price I reckon it’s a bargain.

Topman_Chief Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 And...subwoofer out with high and low bypass. That’s why I bought the P5. Pretty rare feature in two channel gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty rare feature in two channel gear. yes is really handy especially if running HT bypass. It allows seperate subwoofer setup for 2 channel or will bypass the internal crossover if running HT bypass.

DMax Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 OK I was told that any hi quality amp would double its power from 8 to 4 to 2 ohms, is that true?I think parasound focuses more on the current output rather than the wattage output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpearce38 Posted March 11, 2019 Author Share Posted March 11, 2019 I've had a lot of amplifiers through my system over the years the only ones i'd buy again with out hesitation is Bryston and Parasound. I've run a P5 / A21 combo from parasound and i prefer the sound of the integrated over that combo, but my speakers are lot better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
