The 590 isn't low power. It will put out 90w/channel into 8 ohms, and 160w into 4 ohms. It's not a monster amp, but it's more powerful than Luxman's specs would suggest. Wish I had anything else to offer.
Luxman 590AX II Break-In
Hello all, and happy holidays,
To those with experience, how many hours of a break-in are necessary to make the Luxman sing? I have about 175 hours, and my bass is less than stellar. Also, there is not a luscious midrange (yet). I have read epic reviews but have not experienced that thus far. What should I expect over time? Getting a little worried!
Thanks!

I actually own the Luxman L-590AX (not the newer MkII version). Early on, I read everything I could find on the amp, which isn’t a lot. Here’s just one item https://beterbeeldengeluid.nl/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/HFN_Luxman-L-590AXII_lowres.pdf For whatever reason, Luxman seems to only publish the Class A output specs. It’s easily more powerful than that, and driving the OP’s 4ohm speakers should be capable of putting out over 160w/channel, and well over 200 when the impedance dips down to 3.2 ohms. |
