WTD - Quality Integrated Amp/s - And CD player

[Parcelmonkey]

Hi all,
Patiently wanting a quality integrated whilst my main amp goes in for a service, which it desperately needs.

So.... I'm looking for ideally a cheap amp.
This would be a Denon PMA350SE original.

An alternative option would be a Marantz PM66 Ki Sig
Alternatively going higher up the ladder a little, a Creek Destiny 2...

And possibly a Marantz CD63Ki Sig CD player in VGC?

If anyone is thinking of selling any of these kindly get in touch. Happy to purchase anywhere in UK. I've been a regular on other sites and have over 1400 feedback all 100% on t'bay, so can offer a hassle free transaction.
Thanks for looking.

Hi Ade,
Don't know if this is in the budget or not good enough :

Let me know,

Thanks for the offer Alan but not on my radar & not convinced it would perform adequate vice like grip on the Neats isobarik bass units as damping factor is fairly low for SS? If closer I could've tried it but sadly not for me.

Is the Denon that much better? PS it's the CD63 or CD67, there was no CD66!

Oops! Amended, thanks I meant CD63!

As to amps it's only what others have suggested before, I wouldn't have a clue but also don't have unlimited funds or space to try these things out. I won a Denon last week fair price on auction and seller reneged on the deal. Hence this thread as my other amp needs attention and I don't want to be without good sounds...

I'm surprised you've not been offered a PMA-350SE yet. Quite a few of us have had them, so I'd have thought there'd be a spare one around.

[Parcelmonkey]

So am I. There is a cheap listed one on auction but doesn't look too special, waiting to hear back about condition. Rather purchase one from someone on here tbh.

Hi!
2ndhandhifi.co.uk have a CD 63 MK11 Sig for sale for £149. Hope this helps������

You might consider a Kenwood 3020se - not done a direct comparison with the Denon, but I found it outperformed the Pioneer A400, and can be had for not much cash - also, I have a rather nice Arcam Alpha 6 CDP fully working and complete with spare CDM9 mechanism and loader - I'm looking for £100 for it - ping me a message if interested - MH

I have for sale an Audio innovations Alto Amplifier, and matching CD/Tuner, sounds great looks amazing!
