I'm interested in buying the Accuphase A60 amp. My only concern is about its (relatively) low max power. I would like to ask all the A60 owners here what is the max power that they have reached in listening use with this amplifier (and with what kind of speakers) ? The max value that was displayed by the power meter in front of the amp. Thanks for all answers.
Thnaks for your answer, ooslik. I think my choice is almost done : I have seen a reseller today that propose me a fair price... What is your speaker, for my information ?
Bomberman : thanks for your answer, My speakers have 15" woofers in a big volume (300 liters) : TANNOY GRF. So, the bass control of the A60 could be a concern for me. Do you have compared this amp to other recent amps like Krell Evo402 (and even fpb-400cx), Boulder 1060, Gryphon... I'm searching for excellent bass reproduction : with extreme low-freq extension and control, and with smooth mid and treble. It's a little be complicated, I know !
Bomberman, the A60 is a very good option for me, I agree with you. My only concern with this amp, is that Accuphase had recently upgraded some of their amps like the P7100, with a new input stage topology, called MCS+. Though the real audio advantage is tough to quantify, I prefer to buy the new A60 version, as it should be available soon (I hope so). The waiting time should be less than a year, probably 6 months or so.
