Where past and future meet
The Denon PMA-A100 is an integrated amplifier that echoes the company’s many years of audio technology development and innovation. To enhance sound quality, the amplifier inherits Denon’s UHC-MOS Single Push-Pull output circuit and features newly engineered construction, forming a solid foundation for pure, clean sound quality.

This high-performance component includes special anniversary tuning, superior construction and parts, including a larger, upgraded speaker terminal, cast iron footing for less vibration and higher sound quality.

The PMA-A100 is designed to perform seamlessly in an integrated home entertainment system with its anniversary partner, the DCD-A100 CD/SACD player.

Featuring Advanced AL32 Processing, a highly accurate master clock and the latest 32Bit/192 kHz DA converters to dramatically boost the quantity of digital audio information and ensure audio accuracy, the DCD-A100 also includes a new advanced S.V.H. drive mechanism that guarantees accurate and high quality playback of SACDs and CDs.

It is equipped with a full complement of digital input ports, including a USB port for connecting an iPod or USB memory. Like the PMA-A100, the DCD features a 100th anniversary signature badge affixed to its black high-gloss front panel.

A unique history
Denon’s DP-A100 turntable features the same high-performance Denon direct-drive turntable technology that has delivered high-precision rotation for 40 years. Equipped with the DL-A100 cartridge, the DP-A100 is capable of masterfully reproducing the energy and beauty of analogue records.

In 1961, Denon jointly produced the now iconic DL-103 cartridge with NHK for use at FM stations. The DL-103 was able to play stereo LP records with high fidelity and reliability (providing easy handling and stability). The basic design of this model continues to achieve first-rate performance and plays an active part in today’s world of Hi-Fi audio enthusiasts.

Reflecting this engineering expertise and innovation, the new DL-A100 cartridge represents the standard model that has been in production for a little less than a half century – now reborn with the latest tuning for pure enjoyment.

First name in digital audio
The AVR-A100 9.2 Channel AV surround receiver is the ultimate home theater hub for today’s digital age. In addition to DENON Link 4th, featuring HDMI Clock Control, the AVR-A100 features high-bit i/p conversion and scaling, as well as advanced connectivity, network audio/photo streaming and a special interface to enhance the enjoyment of internet content.

It also includes a unique block condenser, a higher-grade speaker terminal with a gold plated inputs/outputs, and cast iron footing to stabilize sound quality.

The perfectly matching DBP-A100 Universal Blu-ray Player lets users not only enjoy the maximum performance of Blu-ray discs and DVDs but also Super Audio CDs, DVD-Audio discs and CDs – all with the very best in high-quality sound and video.

This level of quality is made possible through the inclusion of Denon’s vibration-resistant technologies including Direct Mechanical Construction and Multi-layer Chassis Structure.

Since the DBP-A100 is also equipped with Denon Link 4th to thoroughly minimize jitter during HDMI transmission, users enjoy the best possible audio performance when combined with the AVR-A100. The DBP-A100 also features an anniversary edition coupling condenser and cast iron footing for sound stabilization.

Rounding out the Anniversary Collection line are Denon’s luxurious AH-A100 headphones. Strikingly housed in a piano mahogany finish, the AH-A100 features a high-grade driver for superior sound quality, newly designed skin-soft ear pads and headband, as well as a luxurious storage case.
