My Luxman 590 took about 500 hours BUT a few tips….PLUG IT DIRECTLY INTO A WALL SOCKET! It hates any power strips or conditioners. You also need a bigger power power cable for it like a Kubla Sosna Elation! Mine was $2500 at GTT Audio.
I tried 5 power cables on mine from Shunyata Delta and Alpha and Voodoo, DH Labs Red River, the crappy stock cable and an Ansuz D that was about 8-9k!
The Kubala Sosna had the best synergy full stop!
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!
