Accuphase E380 or E4000 integrated amp important from Japan

Thank you , I just wanted to see how many others besides my friend 

the patented  volume control alone is sheer precision .

the U.S dealers want $13,500 for the E4000

i can get one for $6k as a dealer demo ,factory converted 

its very nice sounding andthe E4000 replaced the E480

The only  downside is no U.S warranty.

that being said  Accuphase is in the top 5% for reliability

from others around the world. I  may get one after the holidays.

Accuphase has been around a long time.To me, Accuphase and Luxman represent the pinnacle of Japanese audio. I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with a choice to go with Accuphase.

I will second the Accuphase. I sold the line in the late 70’s when it was distributed by Kensonic Labs.   Awesome sounding, quiet, great PRAT. I believe you would love it. I like Accuphase better than Luxman.  I sold both back then.  You live relatively close to me (30 miles?). You should come by and hear my 2 systems.   If you ever want to take me up on it, drop me a PM.  I have had many members who live in the area over for a listen.  

I prefer Luxman over Accuphase.  Luxman build quality is 2nd to none.
