Yep and in the 90’s Accuphase was all through whole components, not the surface mount stuff they cheaply use now

You can also pair an A48 to to just about any of their Class A integrated amps. I have an A48 paired with my E600. Together, they power two Chario Ursa Major floorstanding speakers. The A48 handles the bass section of the speakers. I also have an Accuphase DP-700 SACD player and C-27 phono amplifier. Very expensive, but worth it. I guarantee you'll be off the Hi-Fi merry-go-round if you invest in their gear. Also, their products are well built and last forever. You can pretty much take it to the tomb.

Fascinating. I have two monobloc class A amps and I love them. Class A may be power hungry but they work great. Sadly the Accuphase is way out of reach for most of us price wise but still interesting to know whats out there. Will keep it in mind for when I win the lottery.

Hello. Greetings from Spain. I've always wanted to have a class A tube preamp and a pure class A mosfets transistor power amp. For the preamp I think of a Primaluna Evo 400 and for the power amp this Accuphase A-48. My speakers are Pylon Amber MK2 that mount a pair of 12-inch drivers each and a compressor speaker for mid-highs that handles frequencies from 1250 hz upwards. I have a Yamaha A-S3000 that has plenty of power but not control with those double 12" drivers and I think this combo would be ideal. Enjoy this magnificent Japanese machine.

Beautiful looking piece.

Bravo, bella recensione. Ti guardo sempre con grande interesse. Today Class A is between Luxman / Pass and Accuphase and you cover all those brands in the same review, Bravo.

After my PMA 2500NE (damping factor 700+) I want to buy a E-470 integrated. :) I love Accuphase. How they look and how they built. Astonishing!

Nice test. Thx you. I own a Cayin H80A. Class A-80W, hybrid. A very very nice sound to my ears and wow, a real beast. No problem for driving demanding speakers like BW 804D3 for exemple. Compared to a MC MA 352. Very similar sound. But a little more authority with the cayin.

Superb!!

As accuphase owner myself, get a accuphase preamp with it for starters. But tip from me and a fellow accuphase owner. Let them warm up for about half an hour or 3 quarters of an hour before using. Night and day difference. Fyi i own the c200x and p400. And my audio buddy has the c2410 and a46.

Hey Italian friend. Your house should be like a museum for music lovers. I envy you. 🤣

I have not heard them myself but I know they make great equipment! What about talking about OTL's and Balanced XLR connections? No need for very expensive interconnects which usually suffer from runs longer than a few meters! Also, the Atma/Sphere Amps don't use Negative Feedback which causes distortion! The designer Ralph Karsten explains why and how things work on a KZread video from San Francisco Audio Society! I have been using Atma/Sphere Amps for many years now! Love them! They sound so Musical in all areas of Frequency and Soundstage and Depth! I no longer am using my Tube Pre Amp at this time because I am running my Ayon Tube CD player direct into my Mono Amps and also using an RC35 from USA Tube Audio that Enhances the Harmonics in the System! All Tube Design also! For Analog in my system I use a Passive device from my Pass Phono Pre Amp to the RC35 then to the Amps! I have been an Audio Consultant for many years now my and have tried many Tube Amps over the years! From Single Ended 300 B's to Class A to Class AB etc. The Atma Sphere Amps have given me the best sound I ever had! The tubes used for the Output are 6AS7 or 6AS7G and the Awesome thing is they don't have to be They run very low voltage and don't need to be Matched! Saves lots of money and those tubes are readily available and inexpensive! There is absolutely NO NOISE in my system from any Tubes or Output Transformers which caused noise in my to previous tube Amps! So why don't I see this discussion amougst other Audiophiles?

I wonder if you'd like it even more with a C2450 or C2900, or if part of the magic you're getting is a good pairing between the MasterSound pre and the A-48. Thanks for the review.

Wow, you bought my dream power amplifier! I just bought an Accuphase C-11 / P-11 pre/power amplifier combo from 1991. Sounds fantastic! And a great phono pre in there as well! Even though the C-11 is also great with my 1997 modded Parasound HCA-2200-Ii. What is it with Accuphase??

My first experience with Accuphase was their moving coil phono cartridges. They made them; there was the AC-1 and AC-2. They had a wonderful focus and imaging that most of the other MC cartridges didn't have. The word phase is in their company name after all, and they lived up to it. A most interesting brand. I am an experimenter though, and if I had $12,000 to freely spend on power amps, I would have probably bought some vintage legends, like the Halcro power amp or the Sony TAN-7B which uses Vfets. Have you ever heard a Vfet amp? They stopped making them years ago because of cost. They are the best sounding transistors ever made, I think, and they are from the 1970s, believe it or not. The upper model Vfet amps go for thousands of dollars on the vintage used market and they are grail and rare. Some of the amps had reliability problems, so Sony stopped making them. Rumours have it that pristine ones can stand up to the sound of virtually anything currently in the high end. The fist time I heard a Vfet amp, the electronicy white sound that I thought was part of the genetics of all transistors, that was alway a little audible to me, was suddenly and refreshingly absent. I guess transistors don't have to sound that way, I said to myself. The Vfets were so smooth and the tone colors so pure and deep. The Sony TA-N 7B amps, if you find one, are usually around $3,000 on the used market. Those considering them shouldn't worry that they're so many decades old, as far as their design. There were some people who really knew what they were doing back then, as far as aidio design, and they didn't cut corners like they do today. There were some Vfet amp models only available in Japan that some say would sound even a little better than the TAN 7B. Years ago, Nelson Pass of Pass Labs heard rumours that Sony found a big box of old NOS Vfets in their warehouse. He jumped right on them and paid whatever amount Sony wanted for them. He incorporated the no longer made Vfets into a few amp designs which he might have kept for himself. Not sure. They are wonderful devices. .

I think the champagne colour of the Accuphase is gorgeous in my opinion and I happen to like the look of McIntosh. I had the privilege of listening to the Accuphase E5000 integrated and the McIntosh MA12000 integrated and I can tell you that I was really drawn towards the McIntosh. The McIntosh sounded so much more open, full, dimensional, ENGAGING and MUSICAL. The Accuphase E5000 sounds great and wow it looks beautiful! But for me I prefer the McIntosh MA12000. Now all that said I bet the Accuphase Class A must be something extraordinary. Unfortunately I can't find one to listen to.

True, Accuphase is definitely a superior product, along with several other legendary brands. However, the ultimate make or break in sound quality, rests with the quality of your speakers attached to it- I have a vintage Sansui receiver that I originally had a pair of inexpensive bass-reflex speakers connected to and it sounded barely ok. As soon as I acquired a pair of Klipsch Heritage speakers, the difference in sound was absolutely stunning. I addition, the quality of your amp and speakers are both limited to the quality of your source material - just a case in point.

@@arnoldschloss9634 cool - a decade more vintage than the unit I used to have, and probably quite a bit better ;o) - what is funny, is that many high end amplifiers, like the Accuphase here, partially try to go back a bit to the pleasant sound these vintage models can produce - reviewers nowadays often call that 'musical'. 'Resolution' and 'detail' are often confused with higher order harmonics that are in fact technical artifacts. Technically 'perfect' amps can sound pretty bad, especially with poor source material - but I guess that this is what you already said above.

Can you compare it to the Mark Levinson No. 585.5 or McIntosh MA8950?

This is the end game amp for me....

While certain technologies you speak of in this video are truly not novel or new, some of those technologies do help in providing a better overall presentation. I personally would favor a much much higher power gain factor while maintaining class A OPERATIONS. Personally, if I did not already have my own full all stages dual mono designed perfected ultra pure power instrumentation graded amplification units that have no peer at ANY PRICE, I might consider a dual mono setup of these for a basic high quality system of low level listening and far better than basic quality that is sadly so common today.

However the reality is that Chinese basic components are very sound and they have entered the hi fidelity market. Right now they are concentrating on products like the Korean Rose 150. But if they choose to move into the really high end hifi market they can do very well. The problem is the domestic Chinese market for these products are finite. Unlike electric cars where they are the leaders given their commanding domestic base. I would never buy a Tesla.
