@bluorion, I would find out more about improvements to class “A” mode for the 507z. I love having an LED display for volume levels since I am constantly adjusting the volume based on different sources. Not sure why Luxman didn’t have this feature on previous models.
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?

@mksun I agree with the new LED volume display--looks really nice. I believe they changed the color of the VU meters to white from blue (505uxii). I love the ambiance of the blue meters for late night sessions. I plan to go to Axpona in April---maybe Luxman will be there. |
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. |
@jbhiller Wow!! I'm sure you're going to enjoy the 590axii. I'm hoping to go to Axpona next year and check out more Luxman. I still haven't seen any good proper review of the 505z yet. I'm enjoying my D-03x CDP/DAC as well. Luxman makes excellent equipment. Cheers! |
