M900U vs the world

Sorry but unless you guys are mods I will continue to have dialogue on audiogon.

So ya any comparisons to tube amps would be interesting.

I think it’s a good question. In a way the Holy Grail is a solid state amp that has the same magic that tube amps have. I think it’s why lots of people are interested in Lux. Ignore the haters, Smodtactical. Friggin audiophiles. Always has to be some dude like "wELL AcKsUaLly ... Hurr durr burr..."

@naseltzer well said ! Exactly. I think a lot of people are chasing a more 'tubey' sound but without having to worry about tube life or tube nervosa and I wondered if luxman had some of those qualities. I know its unlikely any SS amp will truly sound like a truly tubey amp but maybe it can push far enough into that domain to satisfy ?

How close is m900u to any tube amp sound?  Which tube amps (if any) does it sound the most like?  These would be good to know.

Pass Labs XA60.8 or even X260.8 in this price range. And use a tube preamp.
