Hello riaa,
What I was saying is he did not keep the Luxman gear. If he did what you wrote and bought it four times, that is literally the definition of insanity. Seriously, look it up. Also, He was using the top of the line products from Ayre. Actually, he was running the $30k Ayre KX-R preamp connected to the Luxman amp. They just didn’t blend together. It happens a lot. Also, when you own a Porsche, you don’t put cheap Chinese tires on it. Just like you don’t put $30k speaker cables on a $2k surround receiver. What person spends serious money on a stereo VX-R amp when everyone knows you should go mono blocks. They don’t even sell the VX-R anymore. So you were selling something that no one wanted to buy in the first place. Every company has tried to sell a product that the public did not want. Most people know this. Very poor money management. These are the top of the line Ayre (R) series. As we all know the laws of diminishing returns. This is why I am suggesting the (5) series. One third of the price but 90% of the sound.
