Are Accuphase preamps "dull" sounding ?

I find all Accuphase products dull sounding, and it is not jingoism, as I much prefer the Reimyo PAT777 Japanese made amp.

I use an Accuphase active crossover, which is a kind of preamp. I like tubes, and have tried as hard as I can to find something wrong with the sound of the Accuphase, but I can't, it sounds great. I will keep trying, though.

Ok Jafox !
Maybe was it just an impression of mine ?

I just notice, maybe not here, at Audiogon, that 80% of American people keeps speaking and comparing Krell with Audioresearch, Lamm with Spectral, etc etc
It's not often I see brands like Accuphase, Burmeister, Audio Net,Zingali, etc named.
Of course, it happens, but not as often as it deserves, to my opinion, and by far !

That's all !
And quite normal, on such a big market with so many good american brands.
It's the same in every field with Americans ! hehe !

I love mine this ancient Accuphase pre I just got. It gives me the best sound I have had. It took all tthe digital glare out but left the detail -SWEEEEET!

I also believe accuphase products, inspite of their built quality, are dull and lack transparency!
