No, this model was circa 2008-2010 , the latest version I think would be the pma2500 ( network enabled)

Nice, Andy. Japanese engineering at its best! Sounds great too, I presume?:)

2900 and 3900 are bit available at reasonable cost now. We're expensive in day.
Mine is the silver on in pic. Not getting used now I have an oppo but its well made. I fitted a laser to it a couple of years ago. Got a spare laser too just in case lolhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190114/df7b24c28ef1fb4f85f281f8c941c5a7.jpg

Must admit I'd have gone for that amp if I'd seen it in the classifieds sooner!

Very nice. :thumbsup:

They're great amps. I had the PMA-S10 which, I think, was the next model in the range. It drove B&W 801's in a ballroom without any fuss whatsoever

Really enjot your great amp.

I am loving it Geoff , just wish I still had the ns1000’s to try on the end of it and not the Thiels ( financial restraints) , just picked up some quad 22l’s though which despite some negative reviews sound pretty good to me .
Hope you’re still enjoying the CSF stands.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI will be when I'm back in the UK. The Denon is quality. I kept the PMA850, which I preferred in my system, but they're superb amps.

Yes it looks identical but twice the price ! Must be an incredible bit of kit too.

It was a great amp Andy, a beast.
I did prefer the PMA850 though, just, and sold the S10 for lots more than the 850 goes for. Mind you, the 850 was £700 in 1978!

I was watching an 850 on eBay , it went yesterday I think .
This one will do me for a while , I love the luxury of a remote control too .
