Halo JC 1+ Parasound’s Ultimate Amplifier Richard Schram, President / CEO, Parasound Products, Inc. The origin of the JC 1+ An audio historian could make a persuasive case that our new Parasound Halo JC 1+ is the most ambitious and extraordinary achievement since I established the Parasound brand in September 1981. For almost 40 years our mission has remained the same: build audio components that sound better, measure better and last longer than our competition, at prices that are sensible.
Supremely silent Curl is a master at eliminating undesirable electronic noise. For the JC 1+ he specified a pair of Bybee Music Rails TM, which are active high frequency noise filters that “scrub away” every vestige of noise on the input and driver stage B+ and B- rails. These ingenious and patented devices were conceived by Jack Bybee and invented by an eminent microwave engineer and audiophile in collaboration with Curl and noted circuit board designer Carl Thompson.
Additional details Audio signals inside the JC 1+ travel from the input/driver board to the main board via shielded oxygen-free copper interconnects with 24k gold-plated connectors for optimum signal integrity and long-term resistance to corrosion. Strategically routing each internal wire further contributes to its exceptionally high signal-to-noise ratio.
