Anyone using Luxman m900u with Audio Research Ref6


Hi,
     Is anyone using Luxman m900u with Audio Research Ref6? I have it in my system and I feel something is a little off and I'm not sure what it is. My current set up is,

Vimberg Tonda Speakers
Luxman m900u - Amp
Audio Research Ref 6 - Pre Amp
MSB Discrete - DAC
Lumin U1
VPI Prime Signature
Oppo 205

It sounds good really well most of the time and sometimes I feel the synergy is a little off. I'm not sure whether it is my high sensitive speakers or the DAC or the Audio Research. It drives me crazy sometimes. Considering Luxman cl-1000 now. I'm not even sure whether it is Audio Research Ref6. Most of my gears are new though. Just wondering what could cause this. Any suggestion is appreciated.

“Sometimes synergy a little off”—as in shouty and confused imaging at times/when pushed?

If so, and if you currently have everything plugged into P10 (including amp), you might want to try separating amp elsewhere first. Ime, P10 is insufficient to anchor fully a system like yours. Try P20 or something like Torus AVR16.
