Denon PMA-1520
1988
Powerful integrated with 16bit / 4fs digital facilities and high-speed opto-couplers between the pre and main stages for Denon's staple "Optical Class-A" bias system.
The digital section is identical to that of the DAP-5500.
Having used the similar but non-digitalia-equipped smaller sibling for several years (PMA-920), I'd say these did very well on my overplayed AR-3a but quite poorly on my NS-10M Studio monitors.
Very powerful, very tight but almost bright : forgiving loudspeakers necessary, otherwise you're in for a fizz.
Both optionally available with high-gloss sideburns to warm up the scene some.
