Two channels, and everything spent on them · review
An integrated amplifier that states power per channel rather than as a total — the form that makes a two-channel figure meaningful.
The bottom line A properly stated per-channel figure from a maker that publishes conditions elsewhere — the load is the number to chase before buying.
A stereo amplifier quoting “140 W” without saying whether that is per channel or in total is telling you very little. 70 W per channel is unambiguous, and it is the form in which the figure can be compared with another amplifier.
The load. 70 W into 8 ohms and 70 W into 4 ohms are different claims: an amplifier whose output nearly doubles as the load halves has a power supply capable of driving difficult speakers, and one that states only the 8-ohm figure generally does not. Denon publishes this in its full specifications; the listing does not.
Bluetooth is stated. HDMI is not, which means a television reaches it by optical or analogue — and that means a second remote for volume, because control does not travel over those connections.
Into the speakers, mostly, and into the room. An amplifier of this class driving good speakers in a sensible position will outperform a better amplifier driving poor speakers badly placed.
Speaker positioning. Distance from the wall changes bass response more than any component on this page, and it costs nothing to try.

For almost any domestic room with speakers of ordinary sensitivity, comfortably. Perceived loudness rises slowly with power — doubling it is about 3 dB — and speaker sensitivity moves the same amount for far less money. What matters more is whether the amplifier is stable into the load your speakers present.
Because 70 W into 8 ohms and 70 W into 4 ohms describe different amplifiers. A design that nearly doubles its output as the load halves has a power supply that can drive difficult speakers; one that states only 8 ohms usually cannot. That figure is not in this listing.
2 channels · 600 W PEAK · Bluetooth 5.3 · phono · optical · coaxial · USB · FM · 2 microphone inputs
A two-channel amplifier with an unusually long input list — including a phono stage — and a power figure stated as peak, which the page reports as such.
Best for: A room with several sources — a turntable, a television, a phone — where connection count matters more than measured power.
≈ $100 / 110 €
2 channels · Class D · 100 W × 2 stated · bass and treble controls · TPA3116 chipset
A compact Class D amplifier that names its amplifier chip — TPA3116 — which is unusual and lets the design be looked up rather than guessed at.
Best for: A desk, a small room or a second system, where size and cool running matter as much as the figure.
≈ $70 / £66 / 78 €
Two channel · HiFi stereo amplifier · Marantz house design
A two-channel amplifier from a house whose recent stereo models carry HDMI — the connection that lets a hi-fi amplifier sit under a television and be controlled by its remote.
Best for: A room where music matters as much as film, and where two very good channels beat seven adequate ones.
