Accuphase E-6000 Stereo Amplifier - Class AB Amplifier
The Accuphase E-6000 is more than a new integrated amplifier. It brings together over 50 years of Accuphase engineering in one beautifully crafted flagship component, offering the refinement, control and effortless power normally associated with a separate preamplifier and power amplifier system. Listeners looking for the very best from a single amplifier, the E-6000 sets an exciting new benchmark.
AAVA Volume Control Circuit
The E-6000 uses the same balanced AAVA volume control technology found in Accuphase's separate preamplifiers, allowing smooth and precise adjustment while maintaining excellent sound quality. It's a ANCC circuitry further reduces unwanted noise, improving the signal to noise ratio by 10% over the E 5000 and delivering a 14% improvement across everyday volume levels. Accuphase has also carefully refined the internal component and grounding layouts to achieve and even cleaner, more detailed performance.
ANCC (Accuphase Noise and distortion Cancelling Circuit)
The E-6000 uses ANCC topology for the I-V converter amplifier. This innovative topology adds a sub-amplifier for effectively cancelling noise in the main amplifier circuit. The use of low-noise technology in the sub-amplifier (noise density: 1.5 nV / √Hz) further enhances the benefits of ANCC. By incorporating ANCC in the I-V converter amplifier and the balanced amplifier of the AAVA section, a further drastic reduction in noise is achieved, especially at low to medium volume level positions.
Class AB High-Power Amplifier
The E-6000 powerful Class AB amplifier delivers 260 Watts into 8 ohms and 350 Watts into 4 ohms, giving it the strength and control to drive demanding speakers with ease. Its current feedback design provides excellent phase response, while six parallel bipolar transistors help maintain clean, stable power at higher listening levels. A newly developed extra large toroidal transformer and custom 47,000μF filter capacitors provide greater energy reserves than the E-5000, helping the music sound more dynamic, controlled and effortless.
High Damping Factor: 1000
The E-6000 features an upgraded speaker protection circuit using an ultra low resistance MOSFET, reducing on resistance from 1.6mΩ in the E-5000 to just 0.84mΩ. This helps maintain its high damping factor of 1000, giving the amplifier precise control over the speaker drivers for tighter bass and a more accurate sound.
Safety Features
Equipped with output short-circuit detection, abnormal temperature detection, and output DC detection functions.
Accuphase E-6000 Design
The E-6000 internal layout has been redesigned to accommodate its larger transformer, making the amplifier 10mm taller and giving it an even more substantial presence. A satin finished aluminium display, gold plated detailing and large analogue power meters, create a suitably luxurious finish. The solid, in-house developed input selector has a smooth and precise feel, while they included RC–260 remote makes every day operation simple and convenient.
Why Choose The Accuphase E-6000 Integrated Amplifier?
As you may or may not be aware, the Accuphase E-6000 integrated amplifier is going to be the next hot product. With the earlier versions coming to end of life and also just hard to get, we anticipate the E-6000 to be in hot demand. Beautifully crafted both inside and out, all we can say is this is going to be one of the good ones. So perhaps put off buying your next vehicle, and put your money towards this amazing integrated amplifier.
