Who has heard Accuphase C2400 and C2800?

c2800 is king..if u have the greens & is appreciative of sound beyond this world...look no further

The C2400 is the latest preamp Accuphase has brought out(now the C2000). It has the same volume control circuits as the C2800. The C2400 has been tested in the Stereo Magazine in Germany and got a 100% rating. The C2800 comes with a bobinga wood case. I would go for the C2400 The 2800 would only be marginally better. Spend the savings on CD's and enjoy good music.

They are electronically the same.
The C-2800 is just a more luxurious execution. But they both sound great, the same.

PS I must add the the C-2000 is already excellent !
Quite as good as the C-2400 and the C-2800.
The real difference relies in the optional cards, extensions : mainly for phono, turntables.

You can add a better Accuphase card (more expensive, of course) as option on the C-2400 and C-2800.

Having a Lamm LP-2 for phono, I didn't mind that and bought the C-2000, a great preamp.
