Mcintosh MC462 versus Luxman M10X


I recently bought the mcintosh mc462 along with the mcintosh preamp mc53. After experiencing the Luxman CD player DX03 DAC in the system, I am falling in love with the Luxman brand.. Am I doing the right thing switching the mc462 to a Luxman M10x? Any advice would be very helpful..

Not sure about current Mac products, but a Luxman L507UXll will probably be my next amp. Very musical!

All the best.

Thank you all, I have to admit I am totally confused.. The MC462, it's less than maybe 5 months since I bought it from the dealer.. They have this option, where if I switch to something within a year of purchase that is twice the price they take it back 100%. That's part of the reason for the temptation on the Luxman 10x. As that amp is a recent launch, they won't have that for a demo.. If I get it, it would be ordered for me.. So the dilemma. I also realize, that I could be chasing my tail in this hobby..  BTW, I also have the Mcintosh MA 352, and I love that thing.. One other question, has anyone had experience with the Luxman DA250? 

Erik, Before I consider moving to the Luxman m10x, I am planning on auditioning and borrowing the Luxman C900u for a at home trial from the dealer.. That'd help me with the question on the C53 preamp's DAC as to how it performs with the Luxman 's C900U. And thanks for re-enforcing that I should trust my ears more than anything.. 

 We have the Luxman DA-150 DAC, it has the same DAC chip as the DA-250.  The main differences between the two is the DA-250 has balanced outputs and a remote control. We also have the Luxman SNQ-150 Tube Integrated amp, and the two together produce a clean, pleasing sound. Don't think one can go wrong with Luxman. Good luck on your decision.
