I am planning to pull the trigger on the Accuphase E-650 Integrated. But I wonder if it will soon be outdated by a newer model perhaps the E-680 or something, given the E-650 is almost 3.5 yrs old.

Any thoughts? Should I go for it? Or is this model going to be refreshed soon and perhaps I should wait a month or two.

I am an Accuphase noob, so don't know their product cycle times.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, since this is a largish investment for me.
