Upgrade to Macintosh MA7000 or Luxman L507u?


Now using Musical Fidelity A5 paired with Vandersteen 2ce Signatures. A5 a little bright to me, plus would like headphone amp and tone control which A5 lack. Aware Vandys have tone controls but generally don't tweak them too often. My looking led me to McIntosh and Luxman. Given that I really don't think the speakers are the problem, what are people's comments on these two integrated's? (Budget is around 8k. I love Brahms, Beethoven, Radiohead, Miles Davis, REM.)

Thanks for your comment, glad you are happy with your choice. I'll let you know mine when I make it.
Thanks for comments. Does anyone have experience with the Musical Fidelity A5 which I have in my system now? In considering replacement for it, I would like opinions about whether others also perceive the A5 as bright - I don't want to go from one bright amp to another one.
