Product Highlights

The Parasound Halo JC5 solid-state power amplifier delivers 400 watts per channel into 8 ohms (600 watts into 4 ohms) with a peak current capacity of 90 amperes per channel. Engineered to drive demanding loudspeakers, this high-bias Class A/AB design operates in pure Class A for its first 12 watts to preserve low-level micro-details. Created by legendary designer John Curl, it features a dual-mono topology powered by a 1.7 kVA toroidal transformer with independent supply rails for the input and output stages. Its direct-coupled signal path utilizes custom JFETs and 24 beta-matched Sanken output transistors, providing effortless stability down to 1.5 ohms.

Critical acclaim highlights the unit for pairing massive current drive with remarkable sonic nuance, earning an Outstanding Product award from Hi-Fi News and Reviewers' Choice honors from SoundStage Hi-Fi. Outlets like Home Theater Review and Positive Feedback praise its expansive soundstage, natural tonal warmth, and visceral bass control across challenging passages. Reviewers agree that its pristine clarity rivals costlier amplification, offering tube-like spatial depth without sacrificing solid-state authority.

Integrating this amplifier into a reference system establishes an unshakeable foundation that allows high-performance loudspeakers to perform at their absolute limits. It removes dynamic compression from playback, rendering complex musical recordings with lifelike realism, texture, and emotional intimacy.
