Angeboten wird „C-2450 Vorverstärker - Original P.I.A. Gerät in sehr gutem Zustand“ von Accuphase als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Transistor-Vorverstärker“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 5252641129 endet am 26.06.2026 um 06:10 Uhr.
In good condition, €7,000 looks like a fair-to-good buy for a C-2450, and it is meaningfully below the €9,190 asking level I found for a used example in very good condition. For a piece this class, that puts it in the right zone rather than feeling stretched, especially if the included cables and accessories are complete.
The C-2450 is one of Accuphase’s better-regarded solid-state line stages: quiet, controlled, and very transparent, with the AAVA volume system and the usual overbuilt Japanese build quality. That makes it a worthwhile buy if you want a preamp that should disappear sonically and pair well with serious downstream gear; the main upside here is simply getting into top-tier Accuphase ownership without paying near-new money.
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.
