If the M8 is a line stage only or you have your turntable plugged into a line level input or you have a low out MC cartridge and you have your phono input set to MM you would experience what you’re describing .

Ok but it has nothing to do with the luxman I'm not using the luxman I'm using the amplifier with the preamp 

Also I was told that the input impedance has to be 11 times lower on the preamp than the power amp the power amp has 50 Kohms the preamp 75KO can that be the issue also im not using the luxman I have turn the volume to 80 db to be able to hear the music at 64 db is like 7 on the clock something is wrong
