Hello
I would like your opinion because I would like to replace a Denon PMA 250 SE with a Scott A-436. Is this a good choice?

    Hum... let's see. I really like the look of the Scott, except for the black buttons.

    The Denon seems more ordinary, with a topic on a "neighbor": http://www.audiovintage.fr/leforum/viewtopic.php?f=74&t=21962&start=10
    The right choice will be to take the amp that you like the most. But I don't think it's a bad choice anyway.

      Yes, the look is great, but what about the sound?

      Read this http://www.stef.free.fr/hifi/pages/ScottA436.html :
      A nervous and precise machine, very pleasant with a good dynamic accompanied by slightly metallic accents.
      What is highly appreciated is that the punch of this Scott perfectly manages low-efficiency speakers.
      At this level of equipment, there is really no better or worse, just what you prefer.
      In terms of sound, it will be different, but not worse. The best thing is to listen. A seller of amplifiers who refuses to let you listen before purchasing: DANGER.
