Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?

I can confirm that the list price is $6K not $5k. Also, the click is also present with their D-06 cdp using the digital inputs. Finally, I am really on the fence about getting a 100V Japenese spec version and using a step down transformer. Assuming the transformer is of good quality, why would using one degrade the sound? The DA-06 doenst care if the power came from the wall or a transformer right?

Some US dealers continue to list the DA-06 at $6,000, e.g. Music Direct, while others list it at $5,000, e.g. TTVJ. I was told about the price reduction by a Luxman dealer in Canada.

Tboooe, it seems like you are trying really hard to convince yourself that a step down transformer is not going to affect the sound, judging from the fact that you are asking for agreement rather than opinions.

I can confirm that the list price is $6K not $5K.

If you search online, you will find US dealers advertising the DA-06 at the original list price of $6000 price and others at the reduced list price of $5000. I was told about the price reduction by an official Luxman dealer.

Tboooe,it seems like you are trying very hard to convince yourself that adding a step down transformer won't affect the sound. Is it worth taking the risk?

The US distributor, On A Higher Note, has confirmed that the US list price for the DA-06 is now $4,999.

Agree, price is going to be reduced to $4999. At that price, assuming I can get a bit of discount it does not make sense for me to risk getting a Japanese spec unit.
