Description

Like usual with brands having over 50 years, Denon  keeps its signature design and “look”. The Denon PMA-600NE integrated amplifier still has this brushed aluminium front market by this specific trend.

Despite being the entry level of the Japanese manufacturer, this amplifier  is magnificently built nonetheless, and offers everything that can be expected from a (very) affordable audiophile amplifier.

DENON PMA-600NE: FRONT

At the centre of the front, there is a big volume potentiometer and a traditional rotary source selector to the right. On the left, there are also the tone corrections, the balance, the direct source mode and the Analogue mode.

The Analogue mode allows to disable the digital connections to prevent the disruption of the analogue signal. As for the Direct mode, it disables the tone corrections and the balance to keep the most faithful and transparent audio signal possible.

There is also a Stereo headphone jack in 6.35 mm jack format.

DENON PMA-600NE: BACK PANEL

The back of the Denon PMA-600NE is simple, but offers everything that is needed: 4 analogue inputs and 1 MM (2.5 mV/47 kOhms) phono input.

There are 3 digital inputs: 2 optical and 1 coaxial. They are handled by a PCM5141 DAC which offers a 192 kHz/24-bit resolution.

And finally, there is a fixed “Tape Recorder” audio output and a variable one for a Subwoofer.

DENON PMA-600NE: TESTING AND LISTENING

The power of this amplifier stays modest, but it is largely sufficient to be associated with a pair of 2 or 3-way entry level bookshelf speakers or tower speakers in areas of 10 to 25 m².

The restitution is defined and rather transparent. The Denon PMA-600NE will perfectly pair with neutral or slightly smooth Hi-Fi speakers. We got excellent results with the Monitor Audio Bronze 50 bookshelf speakers.

The power is present and, for us, there seems to be much more than the 45 W announced by the manufacturer. The dynamic range is excellent for an integrated amplifier of this range, and the whole set feels very balanced with a certain neutrality.

It may have a little less colour than its competitors and it’s rather pleasant.

Considering its performance, manufacture quality, connection compatibilities and the proposed price, the Denon PMA-600NE integrated amplifier must not have a lot of competition!
