Google Translate : My preference is for A class. The AB class has a powerful feel with full power from low to high notes, but the middle and high tones were glaring and felt very flashy. I feel tired if I watch it for a long time. The resolution of the A class is very high, but the corners are rounded or smoother than the AB class. It feels gentle on the ears.
Both are great integrated amps. I think the 800 sounds slightly more musical and rich. Compared to the 800 the 5000 sounds like it's screaming at you but that's compared to the 800. Nevertheless I'd take either or.
The class A amp is slower. It is stately; nevertheless I found it not as engaging. Boring actually. This comparison helped me realize I am not a class A fan. The e-5000 was more nimble and sounded more alive. As a result it felt as if I were in the audience the other as if on the outside looking in. We will never know how the actual concert sounded so we will never know which piece is replicating the event with the most accuracy. I am interested in the E-4000 with phono what is the suggested retail price for it. I really do not like that Accuphase will not perform warranty work on a component that is not purchased in the country of residence. The US importer is very greedy for decades and Accuphase has allowed this. So I blame them too.
Is this a comment from America? Since we are a dealer, we cannot accurately convey all the thoughts and intentions of the manufacturer. Accuphase puts a lot of effort into post-purchase support, so there seem to be a lot of rules in place. I hope there is something I can do to help you. Well, there is a big difference between A class and AB class. This was a difference with the integrated amplifier, but there are many different impressions with the separate amplifier. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eWx5nim2APc.htmlsi=l6QnC0ugiB428KqE If you like, please also take a look.
Pido disculpas por escribir en español... Me parece ver un par de Kef Reference 3 en la sala. Yo tengo esos parlantes en mi sistema y estoy tratando de decidir que amplificador comprar. Me preocupa que el e800 no tenga suficiente fuerza para la baja sensibilidad de esos parlantes (87.5 db). Por eso me inclino más al e5000. Desgraciadamente no puedo hacer una audición y debo comprar a ciegas... Me ayudaría mucho saber tu opinión!! Has podido probar estos dos amplificadores con los kef reference 3?? Gracias!! Saludos desde Argentina
Thank you for the test. However, I think the spearkers and cables and the recording microphone don't match well, so I can not tell the difference between the two and can not enjoy any of them, to be honest.
Accuphase E5000 more focus. Accuphase E800 more relax and musical (good for long time listening). ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LCuhOAro-oI.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LCuhOAro-oI.html
