Offered is „M-8000 mono power amps“ by Accuphase as second-hand device from the category „Transistor-Poweramp“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 4001420406 ends on 03.11.2026 at 08:55 o'clock.
At €16,000, this lands in the fair-to-strong range for a pair of M-8000s: recent asking prices include €13,900 for a used example and €16,000 for another pair, while the original pricing was far higher, so this is not a cheap throwaway listing but also not out of line for a serious flagship. If the amp set is complete and genuinely clean, the number reads as market-correct rather than ambitious.
That matters because the M-8000 is one of Accuphase’s heavyweight statements: huge current delivery, effortless control, and the kind of authority that makes difficult speakers wake up without sounding stressed. A tidy, well-kept pair can be a real keeper, especially if it comes from careful ownership with the boxes, manuals, and any service history. At this level, condition and originality matter more than chasing a discount.

Accuphase Laboratory, Inc., founded in 1972 in Tokyo by brothers Nakaichi and Jiro Kasuga, emerged from their departure from Trio-Kenwood, the company they had co-established decades earlier. Dissatisfied with mass-production compromises, the Kasugas formed Kensonic Laboratories—later renamed Accuphase Laboratory—and relocated to Yokohama in 1973. The brand name, blending "accurate" and "phase," reflected their commitment to precision audio reproduction amid the 1970s hi-fi boom. Their debut products, the P-300 power amplifier, C-200 preamplifier, and T-100 tuner, immediately earned acclaim, including Japan's Compo Grand Prix for the P-300.
Accuphase specializes in high-end electronics, renowned for integrated and power amplifiers, preamplifiers, tuners, CD players, and digital sources like DACs. While their core strength lies in meticulously engineered amplifiers celebrated for phase accuracy and reliability, the lineup extends to digital components, mains filters, and room correction units. Hand-assembled in Yokohama with top-tier parts and innovative circuits, these products prioritize sound purity over volume, eschewing speakers, turntables, headphones, or cables.
Positioned firmly in the ultra-premium high-end market, Accuphase commands reverence among audiophiles for its timeless build quality, engineering excellence, and enduring performance. Synonymous with Japanese hi-fi mastery, it stands as a reference benchmark, appealing to discerning buyers seeking components that deliver uncompromised musical fidelity and last for generations.
