    Didn't go for the PMA-700AE and the PMA-250SE sounds better on paper than the PMA-255UK.

    How would the Panasonic A400 stack up in competition against the PMA-250SE? Got my eye on both of these being sold at the moment and they sound excellent. The only thing I have reservations about with the A400 is it seems to prefer expensive components to get the best from it.

    The Pioneer is likely to be the best of the two. I've heard both, but not done a side by side comparison. The PMA-350SE is better than either though in my view.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Of the currently available options I would go for the PMA-720AE in the classifieds myself... If you can wait a week or two then get a 350SE & A400 off eBay & sell on the one you like the least... They're cheap enough.
