Accuphase E-5000 is the flagship Class AB integrated amplifier developed to celebrate the brand’s 50th anniversary. Its design combines technological excellence with uncompromising sound quality, delivering a detailed and immersive musical experience.

The preamplifier section features the renowned Balanced AAVA volume control, ensuring precision and transparency. The power amplification section uses an instrumentation amplifier with transistors arranged in a five-fold push-pull configuration, operating in Class AB. This design guarantees a perfectly balanced circuit from input to output, preserving the purity of the musical signal.

Aesthetically, the E-5000 retains Accuphase’s classic style with refined evolutions. The VU meters have been redesigned for greater sensitivity, while the gold-finished rotary knobs give it an even more luxurious look. The solid and meticulously crafted chassis houses two massive 40,000 μF capacitors, essential for impeccable power management.

Behind the front panel, hidden beneath the display, are various advanced functions: A/B speaker selector, phase inverter, mono mode, balance, subtle tone adjustments, and the MC/MM selector for phono cartridges. The amplifier also includes a high-quality headphone preamplifier, offering an immersive listening experience even in private mode.

The Accuphase E-5000 is an extraordinary integrated amplifier that redefines the brand’s standards. It combines refined sound, power, and impeccable construction in a single device.
