Luxman 590AXII Discontinued??


Hi All,

Has anybody heard this? I searched the net and saw that MusicDirect has it listed as discontinued. I couldn't find anything further. 

Happy Holidays!

Probably some of the upgrades in the 595 will be added in the new 590. Also the Luxman PD 171A TT and the PD 151 TT has been discontinued on Music Direct. Jeff Sigmund was at my dealers store last month and he said the company was working on a new tonearm. Just speculating but for their 100th anniversary maybe they’ll introduce an updated version of their DD TT???

I spoke with Luxman NA; the unit is no longer in production. It will be replaced in 2022. The supply chain issues and the proliferation of COVID may affect this schedule. 

The L-595ASE would be an endgame integrated for me. Maybe Luxman will release a non limited/anniversary version like McIntosh has done on some products. I would think to go thru all that trouble to design a new component for just 300 units would be a waste. 

"I believe Luxman is getting out of the Class A game which is a shame!!"

 

Based on what?  You said in December that Luxman told you that the 590 would be replaced in 2022.  Did they now tell you something different?
