Offered is „Accuphase C-2450 PIA“ by Accuphase as second-hand device from the category „Transistor-Preamp“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 874527659 ends on 03.01.2027 at 16:42 o'clock.
€6,150 is a strong deal: it sits below the €6,184 25th-percentile comparable and well under the €6,421 median, making this one of the more attractive recent asking prices for a C-2450. At that level, a clean, fully functioning example deserves serious attention rather than routine haggling.
The C-2450 is a superbly built, fully balanced analogue preamplifier, prized for its exceptionally quiet, transparent presentation and refined AAVA volume control. Its dual-mono layout, selectable gain, plentiful RCA/XLR connectivity, remote control and optional phono or DAC modules give it genuine long-term system flexibility. Check that the remote is included and confirm whether any plug-in modules are fitted, but assuming good working order and honest cosmetics, this is a particularly worthwhile buy.

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.
