- PMA-2020AE
With more than 100 years of company heritage, Denon has never stopped pushing the frontiers on classic 2-channel HiFi. The result is the company’s new top of the range power amplifier PMA-2020AE and CD/SACD Player DCD-2020AE. Both sum up all of the engineers’ dedication and know-how within their beautifully shaped bodies.
New features:
The PMA-2020AE is an integrated amplifier that faithfully reproduces a wide range of music sources, from analogue record players to the most advanced sound sources from a PC. A variety of advanced circuits in this amp ensure a consistently stable supply of power even for musical passages with sudden bursts of sound or continuous fortissimos. The circuit configuration includes a further-improved Advanced UHC-MOS Single Push-Pull Circuit, and the strengthened power circuit masterfully reproduces delicate musical details on a powerful, rock-solid foundation. The remote controller that comes with the PMA-2020AE also operates the main functions of a Denon CD player, letting you enjoy ease of use in addition to stunning sound quality.
