I am thinking of switching to this amplifier. Anyone share any experiences? I have a Pass XA30.5 now. Also, where to possibly hear one or get one? Thanks
On a very revealing speaker. The differences are more apparent. The Luxman sounds more organic than the Pass, the Pass has a warm sound as well but at the expense of a distinct sonic character.
Again, Luxman does not use off the shelf Plitron transformers. They use an in house hand wound transformer which is actually bolted to the mains using a pure copper bus bar.

Differences are differences; it doesn't mean "miles better in every sonic character" as you stated. So you are wrong here.

In your opinion. You're only one inexperienced listener.

Another difference that does not necessarily make it better.
You really need to bone up on some listening and stop typing.
