I owned a Mcintosh amp/pre amp and moved to Luxman, the components were their AVR products, so as everyone will tell you, AVR stuff never sounds as good as dedicated 2 channel. That said, I am much happier with the sound of my 590AXll then I ever was with the Mcintosh equipment. I can listen to the Luxman for hours on end, I never could with the Mcintosh, even when set to their 2 channel setting. And to be clear, I saved for years to be able to afford the Mcintosh equipment, a brand I had always wanted to own.So in my experience, a very positive change.
replace Mcintosh with Luxman
I am about to sell my Mcintosh 611s and replace with 2 Luxman c900u.. I live in Alaska, outside of Anchorage, and there is no retail sales of mid to high end gear in this state. No opportunity to listen to amps before I purchase unless I travel to lower 48. Anybody have an opinion on going from Mcintosh to Luxman.
Thanks
