The Über-Amp

Balanced AAVA Type Volume Control

AAVA performs volume adjustment by making use of a combination of 16 current signals with different magnitude, thereby eliminating signal degradation and impedance fluctuations and maintaining high S/N ratio and low THD over the entire volume range. In the Balanced AAVA implementation of the E-800, two AAVA circuits are driven in a fully balanced configuration with a superior capability to eliminate external noise.

Formidable Power Amplification Stage

The power amplification circuitry mounted directly on a large heat sink employs a six-fold parallel push-pull configuration of power MOS-FETs driven in Class A. Two identical units arranged on the left and right sides of the chassis deliver impeccable power in a linear progression for the two channels: 50 watts into 8 ohms, 100 watts into 4 ohms, and 200 watts into 2 ohms. The amplifier can even supply 300 watts into 1 ohm (music signals).

Power Supply Designed For Optimum Stability

The strong power supply with massive high-efficiency toroidal transformer and two large 60,000 μF filtering capacitors ensures a stable current supply at all times.

High Damping Factor Brings Out The Full Potential Of Speakers

Features such as Balanced Remote Sensing and MOSFET switches help to realize a damping factor of 1000. Superb motion control lets every loudspeaker perform at its very best.

The impression of pronounced naturalness and floating grace is supported by the truly exorbitant colorfulness of the mids, which are as dazzling as they are sonorous and reproduced without any artificiality. This turns the E-800 into a master of voices, atmosphere and nuances, which seems immensely alive and "real" all in all. Of course, this "über-amp" can also be loud, but it was not created to beat up speakers. It rather produces enchanting music!

The internal calmness of this amplifier is striking.It is superbly built, everything fits together perfectly, and its handling is a fairy tale.

Who is this for?

The Accuphase E-800 is designed for listeners who want the unmistakable character of pure Class-A amplification combined with true reference-level refinement. It suits experienced HiFi enthusiasts who value tonal richness, realism, and long listening sessions free from fatigue.

Its smooth, organic presentation pairs beautifully with high-resolution loudspeakers in medium to large listening rooms, delivering exceptional soundstage depth, detail, and musical flow. The E-800 is particularly rewarding with jazz, vocals, acoustic music, and high-quality analogue or high-resolution digital sources.

For customers seeking a long-term, end-game integrated amplifier that prioritises musical engagement over sheer specification chasing, the E-800 remains one of the most compelling Class-A amplifiers ever produced.
