I am using the Parasound Hint integrated with my Heresy IVs and have been very happy. This Class A/B amp sounds amazing. It has a good quality MM/MC pre-amp. Admittedly, I am using it in a 2.1 setup, not as part of a home theater; but as you have seen it has the bypass for that purpose. Several online sites, music direct for example, have return policies so that you could audition it in your room. Good luck.
