Excellent amplifier

My last amp developed floor noise and at a 200 watts output was too loud for my flat as in on number 3 it was loud so I saw this denon and its perfect, good volume control and contrary to people's belief you don't need massive distorted volume and bass ,I grew out of that at 23 years old ,the bass &treble ate good and responsive and for classical music its got a lovely tone ,so if you want clean sounding amplifier this is the one for you its output is more than enough and I've never had it more than a quarter of volume. Go get one I love it ..Read full review

Best bang for buck amplifier out there

This amp is so high quality and beautifully built it's simple but stylish and packs a wonderful punch
Crystal highs
Prominent mids
And a super rich base
This amp gives no feedback and it's just so nice and easy to use and the volume dial actually turns when you turn the volume down with the remote which is just awesome
10/10 best value for money amp there is would highly recommend to anyone and set up took 5 minutes ( excluding cable management)

Second Hand Bargain

Bought this for a neighbour who has asked me to help set up an affordable strereo. Presently testing it in my system in place of an Exposure 21/18S combination.

The Denon is excellent value second hand, it has now warmed up and to my ears sounds best with the tone controls defeated. It seems to have a fairly neutral tonal balance, perhaps slightly favouring lower midrange or maybe that's the KEF 104/2s it's playing through?

It certainly conveys music across the whole spectrum, when first switched on it sounded a little 'spitty' on cymbals and a little grainy overall, after a few hours listening it sounds smoother now - maybe it has warmed up or maybe I've adjusted to it.

It has strong dynamics that help bring the music alive though at times loud busy passages can sound a little congested and 'shouty'. It creates a reasonably good sound stage too.

All in all a remarkable amp for below £100 second hand with the basic functions that would satisfy many buyers who are happy to be without an internal DAC.

I think my neighbour will be pleased with it!

A Perfect Replacement

I needed a good integrated amplifier to replace a very expensive but no longer affordable one damaged by a nearby lightning strike. I expected this modestly priced Dennon to offer acceptable performance and hoped I would be able to get used to any shotcomings. However, when I installed and switched it on, I was amazed to find it was as least as good as the "high end" component I was replacing. It reproduced orchestral sound with no discernable distortion and solo instruments sounded as though they were right in the room. I find that I hear and enjoy the music and not the component that reproduces it. This Dennon is ideal for domestic use and has adequate power for a natural level of playback which unfolds effortlessly the dynamics of a full orchestra from quietest to loudest volume.Read full review

Fantastic amplifier

It's a brilliant little unit, doesn't make any floor noise and the finish of the switch gear is very high end. It feels solid and well built, looks the part, and has no issue powering my Yamaha NS-F51 speakers.Read full review

Denon PMA 520ae Amplifier

My first amp separate, so no basis for comparison but as far as plug in a turntable and play goes it's absolutely fab. Plenty of clarity, plenty of room filling sound. Out of the box it seems very smart looking, robust and well made, but not clunky. Overall very happy and would recommend the product.Read full review

Quality amp and great value

Great amp, and very good value for the price. A very uncluttered sound. I can hear song artifacts that were missing or obscure on previous systems.

First class amplifier

I have been an avid music fan for 60 years and just decided to treat myself to a good music system. The Denon amp gives me everything that I hoped for, and more. An excellent but.
