Luxman vs Accuphase for Harbeth 40.3 XD


I'm considering trying a SS integrated to power my 40.3 XDs. I'll buy used.

I've heard great things about T+A but they are really pricey, and Luxman and Accuphase look interesting, there are 2 examples for sale currently.

Luxman L-509X $6,300 and Accuphase E650 $12K

I hear a lot about high damping factor being necessary to get the best out the the Harbeth's (Luxman is 370 and the Accuphase is 1000).

Honestly cannot justify $12K at the moment but I wondered if anyone has any thoughts on these 2 amps for my speakers? Or any other suggestions?

My  REGA OSIRIS integrated is terrific with my HARBETH 30.2XD’s and ATC subwoofer .

highly recommended for a all HARBETHs,,well Worth sn audition , and consider preowned to save a few bucks

FWIW …
