The Luxman L-595A SE integrated is coming.

Luxman is releasing this fall a 95th anniversary integrated. It's style is from the late 1980's. No meters all buttons. Power wise it seems like the same as the 590AXII. World wide 300 of these integrated's will be built. 100 allocated to the US market. Price about $11,495. You can view it on the new Luxman website.

Thank you. I’ll have to try and find out what the actual differences are between the 590 and 595. 
I know it has some parts upgrades and I think better volume control. I don’t miss the meters because I’d turn the lights off anyway. 
It’s definitely a keeper. After being on and playing all night, it’s opened up, relaxed and blossomed. Smooth and sweet like a wonderful Luxman amp. It’s awesome.

The 595A is now a different animal. It's absolutely amazing. Big 3D, open and sweet with absolutely wonderful vocals. Sooooo much better than when first fired up and absolutely stunning now. It's only going to get better.

I've owned the 590AXII and loved it. This 595A SE has now surpassed my memory of the 590AXII which was/is superb in its own right.

Fantastic!! Hope there's a detailed review soon. I'd like to know what the Secret Sauce is. Have you tried the phono yet??

Unfortunately I'm not into vinyl yet. I have some records but no TT.

May I ask the reason you sold the Luxman L-590AXII? It is interesting that you owned the L-590AXII before and now have the 595A SE.

I own the 590AXII and this integrated will likely outlive me. I have owned many amps throughout the years both integrated and costlier pre/power combinations and the Luxman really shines in comparison to all the amps which I’ve owned. It's really something quite special. The 590AXII is priced significantly lower than the higher range Vitus, D’Agostino or Gryphon etc. but it is quality. It does not only sound great but looks the part as well.

Apart from the Luxman, I also own Naim NAC282/250DR and another solid-state integrated and the Luxman sounds best with my current speakers.

Enjoy your newly acquired 595A SE.
