Product Features
The Accuphase E-480 is a high-end integrated amplifier known for its excellent sound quality and sturdy construction. It can power even the most demanding speakers with a power output of 180 watts per channel. Its advanced circuitry and precise signal processing ensure accurate and detailed sound reproduction. The E-480 has a variety of connectivity options, including multiple analog and digital inputs and a phono stage for vinyl enthusiasts. Its sleek design and simple controls make it a pleasure to use. The Accuphase-E-480 demonstrates the company's dedication to producing high-quality audio equipment.
Volume control for AAVA
The Accuphase-E480 has an innovative AAVA (Accuphase Analog Vari-gain Amplifier) volume control that allows for precise volume adjustment without sacrificing sound quality. Unlike traditional volume controls, which use variable resistors that can degrade signal quality, the AAVA control employs a novel gain cell design that ensures a constant signal-to-noise ratio across the volume range. This ensures that even at low volumes, the sound remains clear and detailed. The AAVA volume control is just one of many advanced features that distinguish the Accuphase E 480 as an outstanding integrated amplifier.
Amplification of power
The Accuphase-E 480 employs a powerful Class A/B amplification system that produces 180 watts per channel into 8 ohms and even more into lower impedance loads. The amplifier incorporates MOSFET power devices and a large toroidal transformer for stable power supply, and the MCS+ circuit topology ensures accurate and stable signal amplification. As a result, you get a powerful, dynamic, and detailed sound that can easily drive even the most difficult speaker systems. The power amplification of the Accuphase E480 is critical to its ability to deliver exceptional audio performance.
Instrument amplifier
The Accuphase 480-E is equipped with an advanced instrumentation amplifier circuit that ensures precise and detailed signal amplification. This circuit is used in the balanced input section of the amplifier, which provides better common mode rejection and noise rejection than single-ended inputs. To minimize distortion and ensure a clean signal path, the instrumentation amplifier employs precision matched components and advanced circuit design. The 480E is able to reproduce even the most complex musical passages with remarkable fidelity and detail, making it an excellent choice for audiophiles and music enthusiasts alike.
Powerful power supply
The E-480 Accuphase is built with a strong power supply system that delivers consistent and ample power to the amplifier's circuitry. It has a large toroidal transformer, multiple high-speed rectifier diodes, and a bank of large capacitors to ensure that the amplifier always has power. This powerful power supply enables the E-480 to produce dynamic and impactful sound, even during difficult musical passages. The power supply of the E-480-Accuphase is critical to its ability to deliver exceptional audio performance.
Design
The Accuphase 480 E is intended to be both aesthetically pleasing and functional. A large centrally mounted volume knob and a clear and informative display panel highlight its sleek and understated appearance. To minimize vibration and maximize durability, the amplifier's chassis is constructed with a thick aluminum front panel and a highly rigid steel frame. To ensure optimal signal flow and minimize interference, the internal circuitry is laid out logically and efficiently. The Accuphase E-480's design reflects the company's dedication to quality and attention to detail.
Performance
The Accuphase E-480 is a high-performance integrated amplifier that produces excellent audio. Its powerful Class A/B amplification system, sophisticated instrumentation amplifier circuit, and AAVA volume control ensure accurate and detailed sound reproduction. The E-480's powerful power supply ensures consistent power delivery and dynamic sound, while its sleek and sturdy design reduces interference and increases durability. The performance of the 480 Accuphase E is highly regarded by audiophiles and music enthusiasts, making it a top choice for those who demand the best sound quality.
