Luxman L-509X

Any A'Gon readers from Japan listened to this new integrated? The specs and description seems like it could be an incredible piece. Though likely dependent on how good the pre-amp stage sounds. The amp section is supposed to be similar to the great sounding m700u stereo amp.

I'm inclined to think a lot of people have ideas about how they must sound, without having heard it.

@builder3, if that truly is the case, I am wrong, plain and simple. But, this is, another switch, in the signal path. I suppose, I am a purist....old school.....less, is more. Enjoy, be well and stay safe ! Always, MrD.

"I suppose, I am a purist....old school.....less, is more."

Hmmm, one part of Luxman’s appeal is that it looks (Lux?) old school. In part because of all the knobs and buttons on it. That is how amplifiers used to look like in the days of old.
