| New Accuphase Amplifier Experience @donquichotte It looks like regular block power cord. @lalitk What Accuphase component do you have? What power cord are you using? | |
| Accuphase Amp Burn In Well if it is going to get even better after a couple hundred hours that’s fantastic as it sounds great right now on day 2. | |
| Accuphase Amp Burn In Ha! Nice try. | |
| Accuphase Amp Burn In The Accuphase distributor support said 200-300 hours. | |
| Quandary Dealers I work with will let me take home equipment for free. I just give them my Credit Card number where they can charge me if I don’t return the item. Never heard of a charge just to demo. | |
| Is there anything other than a Benchmark DAC? Had the Benchmark DAC3 for 7 years. Ultimately found it analytical and too bright in the lower treble for me. I could not unhear a demo of a MSB Discrete DAC and bought one. Added an Aurender N20 and I look forward to listening to this system ever... | |
| Accuphase e-280 Review I spent a while evaluating amplifiers and found the Accuphase sound to be exactly what I was looking for. Very analog sounding with a beautiful soundstage with depth and separation and a life like midrange. Of course this matched my taste. It may ... | |
| Back to the DAC I had a Benchmark DAC3 and found it a little sterile and bright in the lower treble. I did an audition of an Esoteric DAC and the MSB Discrete DAC. The MSB was clearly a more involving DAC. Smooth non fatiguing. So I bought it and it’s great. | |

| Cullen Gold Series Power Box (6 Outlet Receptacle Strip)-Review Yes it’s on the site. Took about 4 weeks to get it. Patrick said he was backed up with orders. But he does give you updates if you ask. Was worth the wait. | |
| Opinions on PS Audio Direct Stream DAC (Mk 1) @audphile1 Surprised you sol your Bricasti DAC. What made you make that change? | |
| Accuphase Experiences Yes the ABH2 is very nice amp. Very neutral and detailed. Great amp for evaluating all components in the system. But it just lacks that last bit of midrange body and while it basically delivers whatever is connected before it with no coloration I... | |
| Accuphase Experiences No I didn’t bring the AHB2 with me however the Accuphase clearly had a more expansive soundstage and better instrument separation as well as a slightly more larger presentation that wasn’t confined to a between the speakers image. Also vocals were... | |
| Accuphase Experiences Sorry. Been busy and forgot to post the results of my amp auditions. I liked the Bryson 4b3 demoed with the same DAC, Streamer and Speakers I own. The amp was very dynamic with a nice soundstage. Nothing to complain about but nothing that was ... |
