One of the few pieces of gear I wished I would have never sold. E-305 it had a great preamp at the time and wonderful onboard amps also.
Very clinical, the sound. I used their amps for the mids and highs, and a Mcintosh C2300 for bass duty.. I was using Strathearn, ribbons for the mids, Emits for the highs and Watson DVC 12" Columns (4 per column). It really was a match made in heaven. Some of the best Mids/Highs I've ever heard, to this day. So we are real clear, I'm a Mcintosh guy ALL the way. From way back..
Things have changed a bit through the years, Accuphase is one of the few I'd choose over the best Macs I have. I have a few after 50 years..
Certain Carys, Pass, Mark Ls, Macs, Ampzilla 2000 series, Krells. ALL expensive but, Accuphase will give them a run for their money.
I have never used their power amps for bass duty. No idea on that.
I suspect it would have been wonderful..
Watson's were a TOUGH load, to wire RIGHT... Eat amps....
Regards
