PMA-2010AE
Integrated Amplier
Integrated amplier with the fruit of many years of
Denon audio technology and experience
To further improve expressiveness in sound, the PMA-2010AE inherits the UHC-MOS Single
Push-Pull output circuit and is of a newly-engineered construction, forming a solid foundation for a
pure, clean sound. The PMA-2010AE is an integrated amp that emulates high-end models in both
elegance and sound quality.

High quality sound
UHC-MOS Single Push-Pull Circuit, for balancing
details and power
The PMA-2010AE features UHC (Ultra High Current) MOS circuitry
that has been developed to balance advanced speaker drive capabil-
ities and improved sound quality. UHC-MOS technology uses a mini-
mum number of amplier elements while achieving approximately 10
times the normal supply of current, balancing artistic expression with
high output power. The PMA-2010AE thus masterfully reproduces
the full sonic range from soft delicate details to powerful transparent
climaxes of a musical performance.
Precision Direct Mechanical Ground Construction,
to thoroughly suppress vibration
The vibration-resistant construction was reviewed to ensure that the
adverse inuences of vibration on sound quality are thoroughly sup-
pressed. The power transformer, a major source of vibration, has
been “oat” mounted using a variety of vibration-resistant materials.
The radiator has been dampened with a vibration resistant material
and a radiator stabilizer, and by mounting the radiator near the foot,
interference with the power transformer and other sources of vibra-
tion is minimized. In addition, the depth dimension is shorter than
previous models and the chassis mounting has been redesigned to
improve resistance to vibration.
- 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 minimize 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 im-
proved localization.
Chassis construction with 6 independent blocks
The PMA-2010AE features a twin monaural axisymmetric construc-
tion with separate power amp blocks for the left and right channels
to prevent mutual interference between the circuits, shut out noise,
and obtain a clear stereo image. Circuits with different signal levels
have been isolated into six separate blocks. And 1.6mm thick black-
coated steel plates have been used for chassis to eliminate sound
coloration caused by mutual interference between the blocks and
ensure the playback of sound with a clear sense of space.
