Denon has announced the introduction of the PMA-50 – part of what the manufacturer is calling a "new hi-fi series", with its latest product taking a full digital stereo amplifier and housing it inside a compact case.

But don't let its small size fool you - the PMA-50 benefits from Denon's proprietary sound technologies, which include Advanced AL32 Processing and DAC Master Clock design.

Denon says the PMA-50 delivers "superior audio fidelity" along with "high amplifier efficiency at 50W into 4 ohms". And for those wanting to pack in a bit of extra bass, there's a subwoofer pre-out provided too.

Denon has included a dedicated noise isolation block, which can be found "prior to the digital amplifier" and is designed to help reduce unwanted digital noise from USB connections.

The Denon PMA-50 is available to purchase now either in black or silver finishes and comes with a price tag of £399.

Clearly he pined to return after making the move to Australia and the team have welcomed him back with arms wide open.
