"I suppose, I am a purist....old school.....less, is more."
Hmmm, one part of Luxman’s appeal is that it looks (Lux?) old school. In part because of all the knobs and buttons on it. That is how amplifiers used to look like in the days of old.
Luxman L-509X
Any A'Gon readers from Japan listened to this new integrated? The specs and description seems like it could be an incredible piece. Though likely dependent on how good the pre-amp stage sounds. The amp section is supposed to be similar to the great sounding m700u stereo amp.
