Rare DNM PA2 Monoblocks for sale.

Amps are in excellent condition and sounding superb!

I think they are 70W each, maybe 100W - the highest powered amps DNM made and the only monoblocks they've made.

I have a DNM crate for the amps but not the power supplies and they come with original DNM power cords.

I think original price was in the region of £4300 when released.

Asking £1100 - am based in central London

How dare you! ;)

Kind of the opposite really - DNM has always been about delicacy and very low power done properly.

Delicacy in both minimal but very very well thought out circuits and also delicacy in terms of making sure the fine details in the music are never obscured.

These are DNM on steroids by all means... They've (he - Dennis Morecroft) definately have gone all in on the low power now with his top amps being only 23W and over £6K.

My oh my, those are wonderful! I'm on the cusp of replacing my modded 8000a with a power amp or monoblocks and these are within a gnat's todger of my budget.

Do you have converters for the inputs (i.e. DIN to phono) or are the leads relatively common?

Gnat's or Nat's todger? There's not much difference though to be honest..

I have proper DNM 5-pin din to phono connectors albeit put together myself which I'll include of course.

Yes, wonderful amps - great low level detail and finesse. Quite a detailed sound in a delicate way, which includes soundstage detail.
