I did, the POA 6600 monoblocs. Got rave reviews so I tried them
against my Audiolab. Shoulda been called the POS 6600......

Otherwise though, I tend to agree. The kitchen system's all Denon, and
they used to make a great turntable. Currently, Denon and Pioneer are
duking it out at the top end of the 'Home Cinema' mass market, and I
wouldn't care to split them. I've always considered the Denon 380X
series to be excellent value for money, I feel the 280X tends to show
the results of cutting back too far on the costly power supplies. I'd
tend to buy an 'end of line' or even used 3804 rather than a 2805.

I put my own money on a Pioneer 'universal' player, but it could
easily have been a Denon.


Stewart, thanks for the info.

Are you using a surround setup at home, and if so, are you happy with
music reproduction?

Cheers,
