| Voltage conversion of Accuphase E-5000 Converting Accuphase amps from 100v to 120v is not straightforward as the above discussion illustrates. You can never be sure that it was done correctly or to Accuphase standards ("you can use a 680Ω 3W resistor to replace fuse F1"). The above dis... | |
| Voltage conversion of Accuphase C-2300 to from 100V to 120V There may be more to this than just moving some wires around. Accuphase is a small volume producer that makes units by hand in small batches to order spec’d for specific markets (ie voltages etc). Are the input amplifiers the same or different f... | |
| 3 tone control integrated amp/preamp Luxman and Accuphase integrated amps have tone controls, and though expensive new, they can be found on the used market. Both Accuphase and Luxman make spectacular amps! | |
| Have Luxman 509x. Considering Pass Labs INT-250 or Dan D’Agostino Progression Integrated The Luxman L-509 series of class AB amps are very capable, as are their class A siblings - the L-590 and L-595SA integrated amps. The L-595 is apparently the last class A integrated amp that Luxman made, but Accuphase continues to make class A in... | |
| Amp for the new Watt Puppy speakers Accuphase A-300 monoblocks | |
| Help me find my ideal Stereo Integrated Amp If you concentrate on the quality of sound and performance of the integrated amp, you might have to consider using a stand alone DAC and streamer as opposed to a do it all receiver. Luxman and Accuphase make superb integrated amps. | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? When it comes to Accuphase products, cross-border purchasing, selling or trading don't always make sense due to the large discrepancy in list prices between Canada and the US. If I were to buy new, I would want to support a Canadian Accuphase ... | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? Sorry but I am unable to reply to PMs due to Audiogon wanting too much information from me to do so. | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? I emailed the owner Fabrice about whether one PS-1250 power supply can handle two A-300 monoblocks, and here is his reply (with English translation below): "La PS1250 a été étudié pour supporter aisément deux A300, un C2900 ou C3900 et un lecte... | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? There is an Accuphase dealer in France who has most of the Accuphase line up on display and frequently posts YouTube reviews. Even if you don't speak French, you should see the wall of products in their videos. Here is a review of the A-300 mono... | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? Apparently two A-300 monoblocks can share one PS-1250 power supply. You would not need two PS-1250's for a pair of A-300 monoblocks. | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? Glad to hear the A-75 sounded fantastic - thanks for sharing. The only reason the OP (me) brought up US pricing and the discrepancy with Canadian pricing is that if it were fairer there would be more reviews and a lot more people enjoying and tal... | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? Converting Japanese spec’d units or importing from Canada are a function of overly inflated Accuphase pricing in the US, but it distracts from the original question. Anecdotally I have heard several times from people who moved up from the A-48 to... | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? My A-48 is plugged into an Accuphase PS-530 power supply - similar in concept to a PS Audio power regenerator but without the transformer hum. Though the Accupase PS has a huge toroidal transformer, it is dead quiet and the whole unit is built to... | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? I think that as you move up from the A-48 to A-80 to A-300 amps you are getting more than just increasing power (45W, 65W, 125W), but also improved performance. For example increasing damping factor (800, 1000, 1000) and signal-to-noise-ratio (11... |
