Made to Change Your Expectations of What a Modestly Priced Integrated Amplifier Delivers: 85Wpc Denon PMA-800NE Features 24-Bit/192kHz DAC, MM/MC Compatibility, Analog Mode, Much More
How much audiophile performance can you wring out of an integrated amplifier for less than $600? As demonstrated by the Denon PMA-800NE, more than anyone likely thought. Bolstered by a 24-bit/192kHz DAC and Advanced High Current single push-pull circuit power amplifier, the 85Wpc PMA-800NE comfortably drives most speakers and unleashes sonics distinguished with both slam and grace, impact and delicacy. An onboard MM and MC phono equalizer means you can spin vinyl LPs to your heart's content. Analog Mode allows PMA-800NE to operate as a purely analog amplifier, bypassing coaxial, digital, and optical inputs when activated to eliminate potential interference and yield cleaner, more detailed music reproduction.
Constructed to deliver pristine playback, PMA-800NE boasts a vibration-resistant, Signal Level Divided Construction chassis and a power transformer equipped with a 1.6mm-thick steel plate to the mount to kill resonance dead. The transformer also touts separate coiled wires for the audio and control circuits to eliminate interference. To extending protection from noise, PMA-800NE's microprocessor has a Stop Mode that automatically ceases its operation when it isn't involved in playback. Five analog inputs, three optical inputs, and a coaxial input – as well as a headphone amplifier – invite you to go to town and connect everything to PMA-800NE. You can control it all with the supplied remote.
For the price, flexibility and all-rounder abilities don't come much, if any, better. 100% Music Direct Guaranteed.
Analog Mode
Analog Mode allows PMA-800NE to operate as a purely analog amp, disabling coaxial, digital and optical digital inputs while you listen to an analog source. Turn on Analog Mode to close power to the dedicated digital power source and stop operation of the digital input circuity, avoiding any high frequency influence on the analog section of PMA-800NE. Enjoy your favorite analog sources with uninhibited clarity and detailed reproduction.
MM and MC Phono Equalizer
PMA-800NE includes a phono equalizer that supports input from both MM and MC cartridges. This phono equalizer has high gain, and unlike loops in other circuit board patterns that cause adverse effects on sound quality, the simple, straightforward design of this phono equalizer significantly improves sound.
Direct Mechanical Ground Construction for Pristine Sound
Vibration-resistant design reduces the adverse audio effects of heavy components within amplifiers. The power transformer – the largest vibration source among amplifier components – is outfitted with a 1.6mm-thick steel plate to the mount, suppressing vibration created by the transformer as well as external vibration toward the transformer. By directly supporting the transformer with a steel plate, the vibration surrounding the chassis is reduced resulting in pristine sound.
Optical and Coaxial Digital Inputs
PMA-800NE features three optical inputs and one coaxial input and supports up to 24-bit/192kHz PCM. The digital inputs help to improve sound and visual quality of your TV audio, Blu-ray, media players, and more. You can also use it to input sound from an audio source on your computer.
Microprocessor Stop Mode
The micro-processor of PMA-800NE features a Stop Mode that automatically ceases all operations of the micro-processor when it's not needed for playback. By stopping the oscillation of the microprocessor clock during such listening moments, the audio signal is protected from external noise and enhances sound quality.
