| The Future of Audio Amplification I've never listened to a class D amp but I own a class A amp that I love so there's no reason for me to. I'm good for many years and with all of you buying them, I'm sure they'll be amazing when I'm ready.How many people have had a good run of cla... | |

| Getting close to giving up on CD's I love CD's. I actually ordered a new Accuphase player about 9 hours ago. I figure if some of these manufacturers like Accuphase and Esoteric are still investing big money in r&d of playback I'm still in. I've often read that the full potentia... | |
| Accuphase E470 v. Luxman L509x It's only cheaper than Accuphase if it's cheaper than Accuphase. There's Acuphase dealers in the U.S. and they will work with you on the price. Talk to your dealer and tell him he needs to reach out to the distributor to get you on a big order. A ... | |
| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. In general, your thoughts on Accuphase integrated amps? Do I need to post specs? | |
| Pass INT-30 or INT-60 I own the Harbeth SHL5+ powered by the Accuphase e-600 and i've never been happier. It's been about 3 years now. I haven't heard the Pass but I've heard good things about it. I got a deal on the Accuphase from a friend who owns a shop (it was a de... | |
| New McIntosh MA252 I can't compare it to any other mac gear but I thought it sounded great connected to a pair of Sonus Faber Vener's (I believe they were). My friend who owns a shop told me that the MA252 is really hard to get your hands on right now. It's such a g... | |
| Initial Thoughts on Harbeth Super HL5 Plus I have the same speakers with an Accuphase E-600 integrated and I listen to similar artists. The experience is overwhelming. I love these speakers. They do everything right for me. I'm glad you enjoy yours as well. | |
| Upgrading form Pass integrated amplifier to a better one I'm not going to read through this entire thread but I hope you're still considering the Accuphase E-650. You can't compare it to the 470 so erase that experience from your mind. The Gryphon is good but I'd love to hear your thoughts on the differ... | |
| Classe or McIntosh Is Classe going out of businesssed Nobody should feel bad about Classe folding. they started digging their grave a very long time ago. A mini Kodak. | |
| Luxman L 590 ax I would try it. As long as you understand the limitations. I run a Accuphase E600 with Harbeth Super HL 5 Plus and a REL B3 and it's not going anywhere. | |
| I Find Primalunas Ugly. How about You? Is there an alternative? I used to own some Hegel gear that I thought was ugly but it sounded very good. I sucked it up because I liked the sound. Then I had the misfortune of listening to a class A Accuphase amp and that was the end of the Hegel (and luckily not my marr... | |
| How important is component “aesthetics” to you? It had nothing to do with choices I've made. Hey, I owned a Hegel that I thought was uglier than any piece of gear I've ever owned and I bought it new. I did however find I like the sound qualities of Accuphase much better and I do find the Accup... | |
| Just switched from McIntosh C2500/2600 to ARC Ref 6, initial thoughts Did you consider Accuphase? | |
| Accuphase DP-430 I haven't heard one but I'll probably end up with one within the next year to go with my E600. I'll let you know. |
