User manual DENON PMA-717

[. . . ] This high-performance edition includes special anniversary tuning, superior construction and parts, including a larger, upgraded speaker terminal, cast iron footing for less vibration and higher sound quality, and 100th anniversary signature badge affixed to the facing of the amplifier. Each PMA-717 in the collection has been hand tested and tuned by Denon engineers. [. . . ] The PMA-717's glossy black finish the includes the 100th anniversary logo badge, and comes with a 5-year warranty and a signed certificate of authenticity from the chief production engineer who hand crafted the product. Also include is a beautiful Denon "brand book" that explores the history of one of the leading names in the audio-visual field. Special Edition 100th Anniversary Series High quality audio · UHC-MOS Single Push-Pull Circuit The PMA-717 features UHC (Ultra High Current) MOS circuitry that has been developed to balance advanced speaker drive capabilities and improved sound quality. UHC-MOS technology uses a minimum number of amplifier elements while achieving approximately 10 times the normal supply of current, balancing artistic expression with high output power. The PMA-717 thus masterfully reproduces the full sonic range from soft delicate details to powerful transparent climaxes of a musical performance. · Powerful high current dynamic power circuit The preamp power circuit that requires stable voltage and the output stage power circuit that requires a large current supply have been placed independently from the stage of the power transformer coils. This configuration of the power circuitry that eliminates adverse influences caused by the operating current of the output stage significantly enhances the resolution of the preamp stage handling low level signals. - The shorter distance between feet guides vibration more easily to the feet. - The radiator mounting to the chassis has been given a lower centre of gravity to further facilitate vibration guidance to the feet. - Fins of different thicknesses have been used in the radiator to eliminate the adverse effects of resonance. These and other measures to minimise the effects of both internal and external vibration, such as in the mounting and placement of the various parts, contribute to impeccable sound transparency and improved localization.
