The only reason I would pick Denon is because they sound better, and they would have a better dealer network, and availability. Having had issues with high-cost brands in comparison to more mainstream brands, I tend to go with the mainstream. That, and the fact that every time my high-cost amp went 'Pop', I defaulted to my Yamaha ... that in the end I just stuck with my Yamaha, and have done for over 11 problem free years, instead of wasting time and money on poorly built exotica.

@@audiolover You're talking about equipment that's nearly 20 years old, but I'm talking about what's available today. The A110 is very good, it has a dual power supply, a very high level DAC (on this point the old ones are totally out of date) and a much more advanced volume control system.
@@dab9742 SX-11 and SX-1 Limited are actual models where Limited cost almost 3 times more than PMA-A110. Even PMA-S1 from 1993 will be better than funky A110. Amplifier should be amplifier not a Dac. Newer doesn't mean better, like cars.. 🤷
I'm going to help you friend Max transformer 200 watt per each. max load into 4 Ohms per channel 160 Watt I = √P/4) = √160/4 = √40 = 6.3A per transformer P = power I = Current secondary transformer after rectifier.
@@JNElectrics Thank you for the answer, sir, he has a two-level power supply, 61v and 16 v come to the amplifier, I wonder what current is on the 16v supply, it turns out that the full power of the transformer P= (v) x (i)=61v x 6.3A=383VA
@@JNElectrics thank you very much; I am seeking a one box solution and the MF does not have a built in phono stage. By all accounts the X-5 is let down by its phono stage. So this leaves the r1000 though it is down on power.
