Tube and transistor. I think they were underrated at the time. I don't remember the models. They sounded better than the Yamahas. I don't know how they compared to Accuphase. They were definitely a cut above.

Used it for a few years and then put it in a closet. When my Rotel blew a channel, I used the Luxman again til I got a new PS Audio. I was pleasantly surprised (The Lux sounded better than my Rotel, which I don't miss at all!) The L5 can be used as an integrated, a pre or an amp. While it is only rated at 60 watts, it sounded much better than its age would dictate.
