Denon PMA-800NE - Integrated Stereo Amplifier

Description

A stereo integrated amplifier with digital inputs and a built-in phono equalizer, delivering 85W per channel into 4 ohms via Denon's Advanced High Current (AHC) push-pull circuit. A 192kHz/24-bit D/A converter and vibration-resistant Direct Mechanical Ground Construction bring high-resolution playback with detailed, musical accuracy.

Features

• Advanced High Current (AHC) single push-pull circuit for wide bandwidth, from deep bass to detailed highs
• 3 optical + 1 coaxial digital input, supporting PCM up to 192kHz/24-bit
• Built-in 192kHz/24-bit D/A converter for high-resolution playback
• Analog Mode isolates the amp from digital circuitry entirely for pure analog reproduction
• High-performance MM/MC phono equalizer with a simple, straightforward circuit design
• Direct Mechanical Ground Construction — vibration-resistant chassis with a steel-plated transformer mount
• Main transformer with separate coiled wiring for audio and control circuits to eliminate interference
• Micro-processor Stop Mode halts clock oscillation during playback to protect the signal from noise
• Denon's proprietary Signal Level Divided Construction (SLDC) chassis for faithful signal transmission
