Denon PMA-850 Integrated Amplifier / Denon TU-850 Tuner

Regular price £969.00

Description

Here we have a vintage pairing of a Denon PMA-850 amplifier and TU-850 tuner. These classically styled units are fully working and in fair cosmetic condition with a number of marks - please see our images. They will be suitably packaged along with our standard three month warranty.
Denon Said….
Denon PMA-850 Integrated Amplifier
A new series of Denon amplifiers, incorporating a wide dynamic range, low noise MC amplifier. It reaches the highest class in the most fundamental characteristic of amplifiers both in distortion factor and S/N separation. By coupling all stages with a pure complementary circuit from MC amplifier to power amplifier using both PNP, NPN transistors, an ultra-low distortion rate of 85 W + 85 W was achieved.
A DC power amplifier placing importance on a quick build up characteristic by incorporating a new amplifying element. Distortion factor less than 0.01% (20 Hz - 20 kHz).
Toroidal core power transformer which has an independent coil for left and right channels for exceptional regulation.
Employment of an ultra-low noise transistor permits a high S/N ratio, head amplifier for MC type cartridge (74 dB IHF-A), and equalizer amplifier (89 dB IHF-A).
Provided with direct couple switch for direct connection of equalizer amplifier and power amplifier.
A unique design of two tone colour, imparting a sense of high class structural grace.
