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...

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...

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...

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...
