Very nice Accuphase gear. I have the P-300, C-200, and T-101. Did the issue with the P-300 ever get fixed? Mine blew up twice in a ~5 year time frame, last time this January, and both times I was in shock too, but fortunately it got fixed just a few weeks ago by fellow AK'er @blhagstrom and is now producing more beautiful sound than ever.Today was a very baaaad day
This morning everything was fine..listening to the music,njoying the sight of accuphase.I went away for a couple of hours and when i was home i turned on the P300 and light was going on and went direct out....Nothing anymore....it played 3 weeks.Im in shock
Whats the next thing that is gonne be broken? My T105 is with the technician but he doesnt find the fault or reason why the scanning is not stopping on a station,even when he has a very strong signal.I dont find a service manual neither for the T105 ..what now
This is our tube mono block system, fed by a C-200 that I repaired, cleaned, overhauled and re-capped. The Oracle Delphi is pretty much the only source for this system except for occasional use with a digital storage device. The phono section sounds good, particularly with the MA Cotter MC step up transformer, but I switch between this and a Threshold FET Ten/PC into the Accuphase.
It was very rewarding bringing the Accuphase back to life, but I am not looking forward to the day when one or more of the unobtainable transistors goes south.

Any experiences with the Accuphase C-240 preamplifier from 1979? Back in the day it was the Accuphase top preamp, costing 400000 yen, until C-280 was launched in 1982.

E-204 and P-600, sources are Yamaha PF-1000 and Sony XA5ES. Tannoy Cheviot speakers (1978) i love this setup but i am thinking about a new preamp. Any suggestions? must have mm/mc

Accuphase all the way
6old school picked this p300 c200 and t100 from the original owner. He bought them and same day put them in a cabinet. till I showed up helped him get them out I have osned 3 of these ,last one was 2006 i called the guy expectingthey’d be gone to my surprise they were still for sale All I can figure is his price was a bit strange and
dople may of thought it was a possible scam

Its only rock n roll but I like it
Do tell what you stole them for.
Wow. Great deal.
It's worth going through them (or having it done) to replace old caps, check/clean/repair anything that isn't up to snuff.
My C-200 sounded OK when I bought it but clearly didn't meet expectations. Turned out to need PS caps as well as others replaced (some leaking and/or bulging), so I did some other updates at the same time. Huge improvement, but it was a lot of work.
Front panel controls need attention if they haven't been properly lubricated and/or cleaned. Very common to have the phono impedance and low frequency rotary switches gummed up so they can't be turned, and wafers get oxidized.
If yours are recently serviced, you got an even better price.

Well, it would be worth reading Echowars' posts on the subject before doing so.
Yes, I did my P300 following his documents!

Later I changed all of the small-signal can transistors (as it was producing some low-grade static in the right channel) and it solved the problem, also got a very nice improvement in sound.
