The Luxman L-595A SE integrated is coming.
Enjoy the 595. Did your dealer tell you if Luxman made any upgrades internally over the 590AXII.  
The Luxman L-595A SE integrated is coming.
No. The L-595 SE is a limited edition retro integrated to commemorate Luxman's 95th anniversary. The 590 AXII is staying.

A couple of corrections on the Luxman America Facebook page the price is $11,995 not $11,495. Also the 595 SE is available now. So if you have a Luxman dealer near you they may have one on hand.

The integrated is a direct copy of the 1989 Luxman L-570. It was rated a 50 wpc. But I'm not sure if that is a Class A rating. The 570's in pristine condition seem to run around 3K. Wonder if someone had or has a L-570.

Where is Cary Audio?
If you look at their product lineup the best gear is still the one's designed by Dennis Had. Also if you search on line the affordable AES/six pack tube amps. The biggest disaster Cary ran into was getting into Home Theater. The processor was a di...

Any Thoughts On These?
Does Magnolia have any free standing stores anymore? 
Why do people say low power amps should be good for bookshelf speakers?
I remember Platinum Audio bookshelf speakers. Real power hogs. Needed about 200 wpc to get them to sound right.

I let my Bryston amp do the HT passthrough. I connect the balanced cables to the Krell HT processor. The single ended RCA's go to the Luxman CL38U SE preamp. I just hit the switch on the back of the amp. Balanced to the Krell when watching a move ...

I have the Luxman CL38U SE which has the same phonons the C. I sold my Parasound JC3+ phono and went w/the Luxman internal tube phono. It has 4 sut's. two for MC low and two for MC high. Currently I'm using a Dynavector Karat 17DX cart w/my TT. My... 
Your tube preamp and ss amp thread
Luxman CL38U SE tube preamp. I have a choice. The Bryston 2.5 sst2. Or a pair of modified Class A Threshold T-50 mono blocks. Each amp has 20 IGBT transistors. Modified by Michael Bladelius. 
Samsung flat screen TV’s
The only company I have had trouble w/is Samsung. However my 2007 Pioneer Elite is still going strong. 
Shuffled My Power Amps around on my Audio system.
One difference I noticed early this morning was at low volume the detail was much more pronounced than with the Bryston. That was a definite plus.
