| Do true audiophiles own Mcintosh gear Having actually owned McIntosh, the knobs are metal. I had an amp damaged in shipping and some knobs were damaged and I had to replace them. | |
| Luxman L-590AX The 590 is a very even keeled amp, meaning not tipped either way. There is plenty of power, I have no issues with lack of bottom end. That said, you can always find other products that do one thing or the other better. It is too broad of a stateme... | |
| Luxman L-590AX I am not one to tinker with the tone controls as I don't have the patients for it. That said, I enjoy my setup on all recordings, even the bad ones, if it is good music, I enjoy it; hence owning it for 5 years now. | |
| Luxman L-590AX I have owned the L-590a II for 5 years and it replaced a McIntosh MC402/C46 combo which it handily bettered in my system. The 590a II isn't warm and fuzzy but it also isn't etched like some SS. | |
| Luxman vs. Accuphase Here is the problem jriggy, you are asking for opinions from people online, which is fine in of itself, that is part of the purpose of these forums, but you have heard the Luxman in your system and state you like it. Is it possible you may like th... | |

| What time do you wear? Nice collection Tboooe. I also have a Port. Chrono., but mine is with the blue strap, hands and indices. I am envious you have a 5001! | |
| Memories........What made you catch the Audio Bug? Great story J.D. | |
| What speakers are you using with Luxman class A? I have used my 590 AII with Harbeth SHL5's and currently use them with Clearwave Loudspeaker Design Symphonia 72R's. The amp pairs well with both. | |
| What time do you wear? Do you enjoy digital photography Albert? I like to take pictures, but I am not the best at it. I recently purchased Lightroom and it is quite amazing at what can be done to a picture. | |
| Mcintosh MA 6600 or 2275 McIntosh as a brand in known to be reliable. If choosing between the two I would purchase the 2275. | |
| What time do you wear? Great pictures Bvdiman, thanks for sharing...quite the collection! | |
| What time do you wear? White gold in all its beauty...I have always liked that version of the Daytona Syntax. I prefer Arabic numerals. | |
| What time do you wear? Nice looking piece Albert. The Damasko has some similar looks to some of the IWC line.I agree prices have went crazy. I like the look of the ExpII with the orange; I owned the previous Exp II and liked it. | |
| B&W N804 vs. new 805di @Anaakchan - IMO yes you will hear an improvement with the new 805's over the N804's. Whether it fully satisfies, that I cannot answer. |
