Offered is „DP-1000“ by Accuphase as second-hand device from the category „SACD Player“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 2720739479 ends on 12.11.2026 at 14:33 o'clock.
At €13,500, this is well above the typical used asking level for a DP-1000 transport alone, but it looks much closer to fair if this is the complete DP-1000/DC-1000 stack with clean condition and accessories. Compared with buying a new statement disc front end at this money, the value equation only works if the package is complete and genuinely excellent; otherwise the price is ambitious.
That said, the DP-1000 is a serious reference-grade Accuphase piece: heavy-duty build, top-tier transport mechanics, and the sort of polished, low-fatigue digital sound that keeps these units sought after. If it’s original-owner, fully boxed, and includes the matching DAC/control bits, it’s a strong buy for someone who wants one of Accuphase’s best-disc front ends without going all the way to new retail.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
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.
