question for Luxman L-590AX owners
I don't have any hum through my speakers, gryphongryph. The piece you linked may be great, but the idea of buying something from halfway around the world for $1000 and seeing if it makes things better isn't overly attractive to me. When my car has... 
question for Luxman L-590AX owners
Hey, guys, thanks to you all for taking the time to help. Your answers give me some food for thought. We have one dimmer in the house, on a light that's seldom used, I don't think that could be it. Two things come to mind, after reading your repli...

Ask to see his tax records and books. Hire someone that knows what they're looking at. That will give you an idea of the worth of the business. If he balks at that, walk away.

Step me up from Paradigm Studio 20 v4 bookshelf, seriously.
jbmac, I've thinking about your statement that the S6's were too big for your room. Obviously, you have details that I don't. But I'll still throw this out there - I got curious, and made some measurements. My Studio 10's on the J29 stands have a ...

I don't think they were v3's, but a pair sold a few months ago on eBay for $1100 that were rosewood, seller described them as 'satin oak'. Even though you can't hear 'pretty', they looked amazing.

jbmac, I'd keep an eye on eBay for S2's, they pop up somewhat regularly. The J29 stands also show up from time to time, around $250, give or take. They're great.

There's a nice looking pair of S6's currently listed, above your budget, but worth considering, to me. I owned the Studio 10's, which I thought were very good, went to the S6's, love them. Of course, then it was time to upgrade the amp, so there's...
