I want to second your impressions of the Luxman m900u. I have it with the matching preamplifier, C900U and I think I now get the best sound I ever heard anywhere. I used to be a tube guy and owned Jadis, Ear, and other quite good pre/power combinations, but the Luxman changed my mind about what transistors can do. I feel it's the end of the audio road for me. Highly recommended.
