| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like 590AXII is 30W Class @ 8 ohms. Has the classic Class A sound with a nice midrange bloom. Just note it runs out of steam pretty quickly so a fairly efficient speaker is a must IMHO. The L-590AX is 30W/channel Class A into 8 ohms, then switches t... | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like yyz, I'd like to hear my amp with the Persona 3F's, too. I have their now discontinued S6's, and love the combination. | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like I'll post this for your amusement, Erik. https://www.stereophile.com/content/luxman-b-1000f-monoblock-power-amplifier Obviously not what you're interested in purchasing, but perhaps a bit of insight into the company, what they're capable of, and s... | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like erik, sounds like you’re getting some info, anyway. As to the Luxman sound (or the L-590AX, anyway), I’d have to agree with the description in the article I linked up above, wholeheartedly. I also want to add, there’s no such piece as a L509AX, th... | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like Erik, I don't really ever hear anything to speak of, other than the occasional trip to the audio store. I've had a system running since my late teens, and when I put it together I was pretty proud of it. Pioneer late 70's receiver, etc. That Pione... | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like erik, unfortunately for you, I'm not a guy that has had a lot of gear. I bought my amp blind, essentially, which obviously is far from ideal. That being said, I think it's stunning. The gentleman that owned it previously went thru a number of inte... | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like I own the L-590AX. I wouldn’t describe the sound as warm, but maybe it is compared to some other amps. I consider it fairly neutral, and very detailed across the range. http://www.navratilaudio.cz/novinky/Luxman_L590AXII_HFW.pdf | |
| Gryphon vs Luxman vs Accuphase freesole, I own the L-590AX, which is the previous version of the newer L-590AXII. It’s actually greginnh’s old amp, which I essentially lucked into. I absolutely love it, but haven’t heard either the MarkII, or the new 509. The newer MarkII serie... | |
| Gryphon vs Luxman vs Accuphase freesole, you might also give the new Luxman L-590AXII a listen, if you have the chance. Class A to 30W/channel, then A/B up to about 90W into 8ohms. | |
| Starting Over...Need help finding the perfect integrated to replace everything A used Luxman L-590AX should be right at the $4000 mark for a pristine example. No DAC, though. | |
| Paradigm Persona series Regarding the grill price, anything designed and manufactured in a multi-million dollar facility has to reflect that in the price. To do otherwise is unrealistic. | |
| Paradigm Persona series Audiotroy, thanks for your comment. In the past, I always left the system on on, 24/7. The L-590 is the first Class A amp I've ever owned, it gets fairly warm. Not hot, but pretty warm. I'm not comfortable leaving it on constantly. Am I worrying ... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Thanks. Without knowing more, I'd like the option of leaving the 509 on, 24/7, which I don't do the the 590. It's really a non-issue, and I love the 590. | |
| Paradigm Persona series greginnh303 posts12-31-2018 5:02am@brrgrr I have owned the Luxman L-590AX Class A integrated (not MK II). It is a wonderful, full featured integrated. I went on a huge trek to see what I could find to better that integrated. I tried Esoteric F05,... | |
| Dealing with a power amp that need 20A connection Jim, that looks great. When I built my shop, I used the pig-tail method on every outlet in the place, workshop, garage, and upstairs office. My thinking was that if I had an issue with an outlet, I wanted it confined to the one device, rather than... |
