Luxman Taking a Different Direction

I do not want to speak for him but would like to clear up a few misconceptions in this thread. You guys are correct On a Higher Note no longer represents Luxman in the US. Luxman America Inc. in Ballston Spa, NY is the new subsidiary of Luxman Japan and I could not be any happier that they are. Jeff Sigmund is the proprietor of the company and if you give him a call you will see why I am so happy about the change. Jeff is a great guy to work with and he will do right by the brand and it's dealer network which we are happy to be a part of.

Someone mentioned the new address is a residence...not sure where you saw that from but Luxman America Inc's address is  27 Kent Street, Suite 122, Ballston Spa, NY 12020 USA. Little google maps should show you that is incorrect. They have hundreds of pieces of gear in stock and ready for dealers in the warehouse. New website is coming but here is their facebook page : https://www.facebook.com/luxmanamerica/

Again, I do not work for Luxman nor do I want to speak for them but I think it is good that the AG community is informed. Their new products are exciting and I hope the best for them in the future.

hudsonvalleyhifi - I stand corrected regarding the address.  I relied on a quick BING search which suggested a residential address. 

Hopefully, the Luxman brand will live on in the US.

I note that Luxman prices in Japan (home market) are about 50% lower than suggested prices in the US (under the former distributer).   

Surely the cost of importation and support of a dealer base is not equal to a 100% markup ?  

Or were prices set based upon market positioning ?

Luxman equipment would be an outrageous bargain if US pricing becomes closer to Japanese pricing.  But then it may not be perceived as a high end product in the US (and among reviewers).

Stereophile likes Luxman quite a bit iopscri.

US is considered the sucker market worldwide .
