Other Notes:
"The Parasound Halo JC 3+ is a reference-grade MM/MC phono preamp designed by John Curl for listeners who demand vanishingly low noise and pure musical truth. Its dual-mono architecture, separate power supplies, and variable MC loading (50–550 ohms) deliver a dead-silent background with expansive, three-dimensional imaging. The presentation is neutral and dynamic, with a subtly rich, almost tube-like warmth that makes vinyl feel alive and emotionally engaging.
With single-ended inputs and both RCA and balanced XLR outputs, the JC 3+ integrates easily into serious systems. Bass is tight and authoritative, dynamics are punchy and controlled, and the front-panel mono switch adds welcome versatility for classic recordings. Solid, reliable, and built to perform for decades, it’s a must-audition centerpiece for any high-end analog setup."
