Denon S-300
Little is documented about the Denon S-300. The research record is essentially empty - no specifications, no production years, no original price, and no confirmation of even what type of component it is. It appears in no period directories or reviews that survive in the archive's corpus. Period audio publications did cover Denon's product lines in their annual equipment surveys (Audio, February 1983, p.65), with features first appearing in high-end separates before filtering down to receivers (Audio, February 1983, p.65).
What the record shows is almost entirely a matter of exclusion. The search results turn up near-miss model numbers, most prominently the Denon SC-M50, a 2-way bookshelf speaker pair with an 8 cm woofer, 2.5 cm tweeter, 60W max input, and 6-ohm impedance. That is a different model entirely and should not be mistaken for the S-300. Various Denon AVR receivers and DJ equipment also show up, and none of them are the S-300 either.
The S-300 may be a real Denon product that left little trace. Or the model number may have been misremembered or mistranscribed somewhere along the way. Without a manual, a brochure, or a listing that clearly identifies it, this page cannot go further. If you own a Denon S-300, or have seen one, the Archive would welcome the correction.
