| The longest you have owned any gear? Pioneer SX-750. Bought it new in 1976. Retired it earlier this year.L. | |
| Paradigm speakers I'll add my two cents on Paradigm, at least for the two pair that I have heard and owned. First was a pair of Studio 10's, I thought they were very good from day one. These were driven by a vintage Pioneer receiver, so nothing state of the art, by... | |
| Just retired and want to get back to vinyl listening greginnh, I appreciate hearing your thoughts. As far as gear, I've been the opposite of you, probably due to financial concerns more than anything, so I always am conscious of my huge lack of experience here. I think when mountainsong sold the amp... | |
| Just retired and want to get back to vinyl listening I'm certainly enjoying it. Two things stand out, to me. First, the absolute clarity. Details in familiar pieces that I had never heard previously. And the control. Stunning.I've looked at that turntable, but it's out of my price range, sadly. As i... | |
| Just retired and want to get back to vinyl listening BTW, you and mountainsong both took great care of that amp. It looked new when I unboxed it. | |
| Just retired and want to get back to vinyl listening Greginnh, I did, that's pretty cool. I'm blown away by the thing. I've heard both fans and detractors, but I'm running a pair of Paradigm Signature S6's, and I couldn't be happier. I can only assume that the people that bash these speakers haven't... | |
| Just retired and want to get back to vinyl listening I dug this up, steventoney.http://www.navratilaudio.cz/novinky/Luxman_L590AXII_HFW.pdfThere are actually three 590's currently listed, which is very unusual. Two of them are the L-590A MkII's which are two versions back from the current model, and... | |
| Just retired and want to get back to vinyl listening steventoney, I thought I’d offer my two cents. I own the Luxman L-590 AX. There is one version newer, the L-590 AXII. The version prior to mine was the L-590 AII, which had a flip-down panel covering the lower controls. I bought my amp here earlie... | |

| Luxman Audio Gear - what is happening with them here in USA My impression is that Luxman is hiding the fact that the amp actually goes into A/B after the initial 30 watts of class A output. Beyond that, I can't comment, nor do I have any idea what other manufacturers do or don't do. I love the amp, you wer... | |
| Luxman Audio Gear - what is happening with them here in USA sonometer, I’ll just post these links for you to look at. Luxman only publishes the power for the class A portion of the amp, which seems a dis-service. I wouldn’t feel comfortable making a blanket statement about the amp and your speakers, althou... | |
| Luxman Audio Gear - what is happening with them here in USA Count me among Luxman's fans. mountainsong, that L-590AX that I bought from you in February is some of the best money I've ever spent, the sound is stunning. Everyone that has heard it has been amazed.Thanks again. | |
| Integrated Amplifier with the Good Bass and Extended Highs I wish I knew more, or had more experience to comment further. When I bought my L-590AX I read all the Luxman reviews I could find, which certainly weren’t a tremendous amount. Most reviewers liked the sound of the two class A amps over the others... | |
| Integrated Amplifier with the Good Bass and Extended Highs I’ll chime in, since it’s been touched on. I own Luxman’s L-590AX, and imagine it may be everything you’re looking for. Used, around $4000 in great shape. 30W in Class A. To me, it’s stunning. Still certainly not cheap, but I bet it’s tremendously... | |
