The DP-470 is a CD/SACD player from Accuphase, a Japanese manufacturer with a considerable reputation for uncompromising high-end electronics engineering, built with exceptional measured performance. The DP-470 brings Accuphase's meticulous engineering to disc-based digital source playback.

Key specs that matter

Dynamic range reaches an exceptional 117dB, with signal-to-noise ratio at an exceptional 120dB, and total harmonic distortion plus noise at an exceptionally low 0.0008%. At 465 x 151 x 393mm and 13.7kg, the DP-470 maintains a substantial chassis reflecting Accuphase's characteristic build-quality standards.

Sound and use context

Expect exceptionally clean disc playback reflecting the extraordinary 117-120dB dynamic range and signal-to-noise figures combined with the near-immeasurable 0.0008% distortion figure, representing Accuphase's considered current digital source engineering.

Pairing

Accuphase's own extensive amplifier catalogue offers natural companion components for a coherently voiced, entirely Accuphase-based system.

Alternatives

Accuphase's broader digital source catalogue offers alternatives for buyers wanting a different balance of features.
