Description Accuphase E-5000 Integrated Stereo Amplifier The E-5000 is the flagship high-power Class AB integrated amplifier developed to mark Accuphase’s 50-year anniversary. The preamplifier section features our superior Balanced AAVA volume control, while the power amplifier section includes an instrumentation amp and power transistors in a five-fold push-pull arrangement driven in Class AB. These circuits create a balanced circuit from input to output. With its precisely balanced circuits and solidly built output stage, the E-5000 integrated amplifier presents every piece of music in exquisite detail. Balanced AAVA volume control Highly reliable logic-control signal switching relays Ample input connectors (Five line level and two balanced) Line level input and output connectors for a recorder Individual phase setting for each input Stereo signal can be switched to monophonic operation Left / right balance control through Balanced AAVA Volume attenuator that can instantly reduce sound as low as –20 dB Loudness compensator to adjust audible sonic balance Tone controls using summing active filters Power amplification stage employs instrumentation amplifier principle Current feedback amplification circuit topology assures excellent phase characteristics in high range Speaker output protection circuit guards against short-circuiting Protection circuitry using low impedance, highly reliable MOS-FET switches Two massive speaker connectors for output switching and simultaneous output Line level and balanced outputs at the preamplifier section support bi-amping connection Line level and balanced inputs at the power amp section allow use as a power amplifier Dedicated, high-quality headphone amplifier constructed with discrete components Two expansion slots for option boards
