Has anyone heard a Denon PMA-1060?

[Vintage Stereo Stuff]

Hello I just bought a Denon PMA 1060 amp about 3 weeks ago off of Craigs List for the original owner. I must say for a starter amp or a amp that you keep for twenty years you can't go wrong if the price is right. It is a warm full sounding amp that has plenty of low end punch at low to high volumes. I have had plenlt of different vintage Receivers not a/v junk, I think I have found the amp I want with the 1060 it pairs well with any speaker I have which I have 15 different pairs, From Jubal JBL's, Wharfedale saphire's 87 to Polk R2's a bunch more. Receivers from a Vintage Sony V7, Sony ES's to a Nad 7140 and a Denon DRA-300. I will say this the Denon 1060 sounds better than the Nad 7140 and the 2100 amp I have. almost as good as the SonyV7 maybe on some stuff even edges it. The biggest differance I have found if they sound equal then look at how will it hold up. The Denon PMA-1060 runs so much cooler than any of my other units it has to last. The hottest running unit I have is a Harman Kardon AVR-645 it runs so hot I put a fan on it because I did not trust the one that is built in to it because it never came on.

As a lot of the people have said it is up to you and your taste.

I would lean toward a warm amp and then take on the mission of finding the right speaker for the right room for the music you listen to good luck on this one.

Used stereo equipment is selling so cheap it is insane

The old saying is time and money.

How much time do you have to burn and How much money you don't need

Good luck
