DenonPMA-600NE HiFi Amplifier, Bluetooth, Phono Equalizer, Coaxial and Optical Inputs, Subwoofer Output, Analog Mode, Music Streaming - Black

I am a man of simple tastes. I don't want huge complexity in my sound system, but I do want decent quality sound. As you can see, it's a pretty minimal setup. There's a Rega P1 turntable, an Xbox One used mainly for streaming, and one of these lovely Denon P600s to do the legwork. That's all connected to a pair of Mission bookcase speakers.The sound is the best you're going to get for this money, and certainly better than any combination I've tried before, including some more expensive. I also connect PCs and a phone through Bluetooth for music and that's just as good. I note some people had issues with it, but I never have. In fact I bought this because the Bluetooth receiver in my old Denon DAB head unit packed up, and I've never looked back.The setup is simple and self-explanatory. The turntable can go direct into the unit and it's pretty good, but I boost it with a little generic pre-amp just to give a bit more kick.The digital audio from the Xbox for streaming and occasional gaming is equally excellent. Bass when needed but the dialogue is clear as a bell, something I've not found to be true of all systems designed for music.My only issue is with the remote control which is designed to be used in conjunction with a Denon CD player. I don't have or want a CD player, it's redundant technology now, so the remote has six buttons that I use and 36 that I never touch. Not the worst problem in the world. There are actually six other buttons I never use, but that's because I have so few inputs.

I was researching looking to buy a new amp and Cd player and kept reading positive reviews from both customers and articles from what hi-fi and other articles on YouTube in regards to the Denon PMA600NE and the Denon DCD-600NE they all spoke of the quality build, the richness of the sound if paired with the correct speakers, the Bluetooth connectivity, being able to switch between analogue and direct sound. I am really impressed with my purchase, I have paired them with Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 speakers and the sound quality is phenomenal the bass tones are rich, has depth, on the warmer side but definitive, and the balance with the mid range and highs is spot on, not bright just well balanced. I have played vinyl, cd's and mp3 and flac from my phone's music player all good sounds. The amp is well suited to my needs.

Hi first of I’m really impressed with sound quality and build quality of the denon amplifier and speakers I’m using are mission 727 150 watts at 8 ohms but i can tell you at 45 watts per channel I’m surprised how much power it’s got and this is the first time I’ve had denon equipment biggest bonus is Bluetooth mode and it’s easy to set up and like size of amplifier.

Very pleased with this Amp. Sadly, my very old Pioneer A-20, which, although didn’t have a lot of power, sounded amazing on my Monitor Audio Reference Series floor standing speakers and when it went faulty, tried to replace it and couldn’t. This Denon reminds me a lot of the Pioneer, very open sounding, good top, mid and those stunning lows even with bass at flat centre, wow. The difference is, it’s got a lot more grunt to it, than the Pioneer. The only thing I’d criticise is, the volume control could do with being a little more logarithmic at the low end. Fine if operated manually, but makes the remote rather sensitive at low volume. My Marantz in another room is the same, whereas the Pioneer was easier to finely control at low volume.One of the HiFi Review Mags thought it was a little "veiled" in the mid range, but I'd suggest it was the speakers they were using, as it is certainly not the case with my speakers. On mine, it's very open and real (Band sounds as if it's in the room) sounding.Overall, a really good buy.

Absolutely love this amp. My only irritation is that there is a lag when switching between sources when using the remote in particular. This on ocassion has made me think the volume was down too low, so I crank it up a bit on the remote and then a second or two later am blown away by becasue I have made it too loud.I probably need to just get used to this. The sound quality is awsome. It is effortlessly driving 4 Monitor Audio M300 Floorstanding Speakers (3G Series) and sound is open (not boxey) and not overly warm with lots of detail and excellent bass. I have also tried it on my 44 year old Tannoy Cheviots and they have never sounded better. Looking forward to many years of pleasure from this and the Denon DCD 800ne which I also bought around the same time!

I have had Denon hi fi equipment since the late 80s and this amp doesn't disappoint typical Denon crystal clear audio and simplicity to use. I got it to replace my denon av receiver which has served me well for over 15 year. Would recommend this amp even the phone output is excellent ideal for vinyl lovers like myself

This is the best amplifier I have bought so far I love.Everything about it
