Exciting new product from Parasound recently announced on their website (earlier sneak previews may have been available elsewhere). Said to be shipping in June 2018 with a retail price of about $6,000, so very few, if any, have had a chance to see or hear one yet. But on paper it sure looks like a product that audio enthusiasts looking for higher end gear could potentially be interested in.

The Halo JC 5 is our new 400 watt per channel stereo power amplifier. It's the latest achievement of Parasound value engineering in concert with audio legend John Curl.
Over the years our Curl-designed JC 1 monoblock has garnered more honors than any other amplifier, making it the benchmark for performance and value. Meanwhile, customers and dealers have been asking for an uncompromised stereo amplifier alternative to save money and space. So we presented Curl with this ambitious challenge: Distill the essence of two JC 1 monoblocks into a single chassis stereo amplifier with a more attractive price.
The result is the profoundly powerful and supremely musical JC 5. John Curl's signature is discreetly imprinted on its front panel, honoring his considerable role in its development. The JC 5 will delight the ears and wallets of serious audiophiles and music lovers alike. With exquisite performance and compelling value, the JC 5 is the new amplifier benchmark.
