Accuphase Laboratory Inc. is a prestigious Japanese high-end audio manufacturer founded on June 1, 1972, by former Kenwood engineer Jiro Kasuga in Tokyo (later relocated to Yokohama in 1973). Originally established as Kensonic Laboratory with Kenwood as part owner, it became Accuphase Laboratory in 1982. The company name combines 'ACCU' from 'accurate' and 'PHASE,' expressing their doctrine 'to get to the truth' of audio technology. Their philosophy is 'enrich life through technology.' Accuphase gained early recognition when their P-300 power amplifier won the Japan Compo Grand Prix Award in 1973. The company is renowned worldwide for exceptional sound quality, distinctive champagne/gold faceplates, and large dual analog power meters. They manufacture power amplifiers, preamplifiers, integrated amplifiers, digital sources, tuners, power supplies, and phono cartridges, all regarded highly by audiophiles for superior design and build quality.
