Newbie looking for amplifier advice


Hello

After much painful research, I decided to purchase a Ryan R610. I heard Sonus Faber, Dynaudio, Magnepan etc but decided that a bookshelf is the best fit for my apartment living room.  

Room is 19x12x8 with carpeted floor and huge glass window. I have been advised Belles Aria but wondering if there is a DAC integrated around $2500 which can match this amp.

Specifically, the Parasound Halo catches my attention but am concerned about DAC longevity and have been hinted that Parasound isn't such a value for money as, say, Emotiva. 

Anyone run a Ryan/Belles combination?

One of JohnnyR's best attributes is that he knows so much about audio and knows what works well together.  I have heard him assemble systems for every pocketbook and I scratch my head every time as to how he can do this consistently.  I read the posts and  while some might feel that his posts had an attacking tone, I did not see it that way.  I looked at it as though unless you have heard the combinations, opinions are then just opinions without any backing.  Funny, I tell my wife that all the time.  Not to sound attacking in anyway, JR just knows the products and was providing what I would want, someone who knows the equipment and how they interact together to get the best sound.

Happy Listening.

Relax brother and read my post again ... You post twice in this thread and both are attacks ...  you may want to add a disclaimer and not sell by attacking the competition
I don't see any "attack" in what Johnny wrote at all. Paraneer you must be a very, very sensitive person.

Now, wouldn't It have been cool if you actually experienced a Belles Aria before you dismiss it?
May want to read his quote again.  Its up above.

OK, how about condescending then about a product I never dismissed.  Nothing sensitive about me Cleeds.  I just believe in standing up for myself when someone claims I said or acted in a way that I never did.  Wouldn't anyone do this?

Not an attack sorry you felt bad though
 your post implies as if you
 must of heard the Belles Aria by saying
((( I can't think of higher value gear)))))
((( Has more power Always etc)))
I try my best to deal with facts here.
  Always isn't always here but can offer you a kleenex after you listen.
 Best JohnnyR

I never implied that I heard a Belles. Again, reread my post - I simply stated a fact between the power output of the Halo and Aria and you somehow assumed I was knocking the Belles.

I know you sell this amp but why so defensive about them?  Good luck with your dealership Johnny. You still don’t seem to get it.
