OP, I hope you get what you want here. I’m in month two of owning my very first Lux—the 590axii. I love it so much and respect the engineering so much that if I move in a different direction I’m gonna keep it as an heirloom. The Japanese at this price point build well thought out quality components.
Luxman 505z
I haven't seen any reviews of the 505z on AG yet. I've read great things about the 507z and the 509z with regards to their new LIFES circuitry etc. They also have upgraded phono stages. I think Darko had requested one to review but he hasn't posted it yet. I have a 505uxii so I'm wondering if the 505z would be worth upgrading to. Has anyone here heard the 505z yet?
