Best Denon integrated amplifier

Just got a Denon PMA-900V all that power even with (-10db attenuators, for better volume range before it's loud) 85db speakers, it's fantastic to have so much clean power. ADDICTIVE

I've had a Denon PMA 700V that I got from Epay about 6 or 7 years ago. It was an upgrade from the 500V's (yes, more than one!) that I have. Deeper bass, definitely. Needs a good cleaning though. Getting some cracklies when I switch certain elements.
 
Hello I have the Denon pma-850 but mine has the ETC 281 board . Its a crosstalk board with adjustment pots on the rear of the unit . Other than a few pictures of this unit on the net I can't find any info on it. I'm looking for the schematics or any info on this type 850 . Thanks
 
Thanks I've seen that .My 850 is different has the ETC-281 crosstalk board its mounted behind the speaker selector switch. I think this crosstalk board is a tick and pop remover for playing vinyl . I just found this info for another model .
Denon PMA-701 on thevintageknob.org
 
Not sure if there's a better unit than PMA-790 (vintage), probably not.

The bigger PMA-970 was TOTL at that time...

This was the best Denon you could buy in the USA, but they were very uncommon.
 
I've had my Sansui G5500 for awhile & it's a keeper, but bought a 1983 Denon PMS 750 / 80 WPC out of curiousity , & am Impressed with build & sound quality....Im keeping it
