I thought I'd start my own thread to compliment Joe's about bi-amping the big SDA's.
On things like the saxophones, xylophones, horns, pianos, and cow bells the texture and detail is notable. Add to this more depth and you have a combo that's hard to beat. I feel like I'm getting the finesse of the MF A5 Integrated I had a few weeks with the impact and punch inherent of the Parasound's. That's like having your cake and eating it too. Not to mention the reduced sibilance in some vocal tracks that I thought was heavy reverb. It really adds up.
On top of all that, I noticed in more upbeat songs like some trance/techno that the mids and upper bass seemed to have more speed and attack. They seemed punchier but under more control if that is possible. The bass (in general) even seems smoother but still with a good amount of "growl."
As I said in Joe's thread, I think the HALO A21 and A23 are a very logical step-up from the standard Parasound offerings that are really bringin' it when paired together.
