Luxman. In my opinion more bang for the buck. I have the L-507uX mark ii, discontinued, paired with Tannoy Gold Reference Sterlings. Beautiful Amp beautiful speakers and sound.
Integrated Amplifiers - Luxman vs Pass Labs
Hello All,
This is my first post here at Audiogon.
My current amplifier is the Luxman L-550axii and my speakers are the Marten Django L and Coherent Audio 15 (coaxial speakers with 15" woofer and high efficiency of approximately 98db).
I'm contemplating making a move with my integrated. I'm considering the Luxman 590axii or one of the current Pass Labs Integrated's. I haven't had a chance to listen to the 590 and I've never listened to a Pass product before and the opportunity just doesn't present itself to be able to demo any at a dealer's or in-home.
I'm hoping those that have heard both the Luxman and any current Pass Integrated could chime in with their thoughts about them and the direction you would go given my speakers.
In the future, I may look at replacing the Coherent speakers with Audio Note AN-J or AN-E. Any experience out there with Luxman or Pass Labs and Audio Note speakers??
Thank you to all who chime in with your experience and thoughts!
