Does any one have experience with a high-end amp switch or the Luxman AS-55


Hello all,

I am interested in the Luxman AS-55 speaker/amp switch. https://japan-itema.com/product/luxman-as-55-speaker-selector-passive-high-definition-audio/

Can anyone comment on its quality and performance?
I want to use it with a Luxman L-509X and with an Air Tight ATM-1s — to switch between both amplifiers and a pair of Harbeth HL5 Plus speakers. 
Does the AS-55 have sufficient quality for these two high-quality amplifiers?
Thank you very much for your advice.

Sincerely,

Jeffrey Liu

A switch such as this, no matter the quality, will decrease detail, damping and overall sq, in my experience. Several high end dealers I worked with, used switching in the lower level sound rooms, but never, in a million years, would use switching, when using the better higher end gear. I would not use it.
