Parasound Halo A52+ -5 Channel Power Amplifier (Black)

Key Features

  • High-current 5-channel Class AB power amplifier designed for premium home theatre systems

  • Delivers powerful, clean, and consistent performance across all five channels

  • Large toroidal power transformer with high-capacity power supply for excellent dynamic headroom

  • Balanced (XLR) and unbalanced (RCA) inputs for flexible connectivity with AV processors and preamplifiers

  • Independent gain controls for each channel allow precise level matching and system calibration

  • Bridgeable channel capability for increased power output in select configurations

  • Extremely low noise floor and low distortion for transparent and detailed sound reproduction

  • Comprehensive protection circuitry including thermal, over-current, and DC protection

  • Automatic turn-on options via 12V trigger or audio signal sensing

  • Loop outputs enable easy system expansion or multi-amp setups

  • Heavy-duty, resonance-resistant chassis with durable black finish

  • Ideal for powering front, centre, and surround speakers in high-performance home cinema environments
