Angeboten wird „C-3900S - only 3 months - mint condition“ von Accuphase als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Transistor-Vorverstärker“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 5231575651 endet am 13.07.2026 um 14:31 Uhr.
This is a buyer’s market for this category, and €23,600 looks strong for a C-3900S. New pricing sits around €32,000 to €32,100, so this listing is roughly €8,400 under retail; for a three-month-old unit in mint condition, that’s a meaningful discount rather than a token saving. It’s not cheap in absolute terms, but it is well positioned for a flagship preamp of this caliber.
The appeal here is straightforward: Accuphase’s top-end preamps are loved for their exceptionally low noise, refined control, and effortless transparency, and the C-3900S is the current statement piece in that line. With original box and complete accessories, the listing ticks the right boxes for resale safety too. If the invoice and condition check out, this reads as a very solid buy for someone already shopping at this level.
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.
