For that kind of money, I would look at Esoteric. I never much cared for Luxman and I was a Luxman dealer from 1978 to 1983. I find them a bit soft sounding.
I have auditioned a number of Luxman components recently and none of them have been soft or lacked detail. However the definitely lacked midrange bloom, musicality, and natural sound. If you are into flashy shiny sound… they fit the bill.
