Not to beat the dead horse again, but I always wonder if Luxman can sell products outside of Japan with similar prices in Japan, why can’t Accuphase? It’s a shame really as Accuphase makes superb gear.
Also, it’s quite rare to see Accuphase and Magico together. I’m very intrigued about the sound Gene is getting from his S7’s. Very nice system BTW, Gene.
I still have a soft spot for Accuphase.
I agree that even though I probably paid more than was necessary, the tremendous enjoyment I get from Accuphase more than makes up for the mark-up.
Whats one supposed to do? I have to pay what they say it costs and i'm not prepared to go though all the potential hassle of importing 110v models from Japan
and probably degrade the sound with a step-up transformer and loose all warranty coverage.
I'll swallow hard,hold my nose and pay because it's been ( and probably will continue to be) more than worth it.
I am not referring to importing 110V units
All Accuphase gear has multi-Voltage abilities included. No need for a Step-up Transformer. You just have to switch the jumper cables around inside.
$21,000 is quite a bit of money for an integrated amp IMO. A certain dealer (who shall remain nameless) is already telling us to expect a price increase and most of this year's allocation of E-800s have been spoken for.
I guess if you are loyal to brand, price is not relevant. I've owned a couple of Accuphase intreated amps - nice gear, well built. I prefer Luxman and think it offers better value.
