The Luxman L-595A SE integrated is coming.
Maybe instead of speculating you should actually talk to a Luxman Rep who can tell you what the difference is.  My buddy is awaiting for his to arrive shortly

Ive got around 15 pairs....4 more incoming shortly (Cube Audio Nenuphar's/Spendor Classic 100/Fleetwood Deville/Rosso Fiorentino Certaldo 2).  I'll get around to all of em eventually....if I live long enough. I like collecting depreciating assets ... 
So how can a great system solve less than great recordings
   It would pay to do your "homework" as to what recordings sound best for each title you want in your collection. If you primarily spin CD's like yours truly you will discover that Original pressings in most cases are far and away better sounding...

A phenomenal new CD transport-Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 transport
Not to mention in another thread he said he compared a 10 Year Old Model Esoteric K-01 to his current streaming service. His "Store" I am told is his dining room in his house LOL   He's been busy the past couple of days reviving DEAD threads of T+... 
Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure
Would love to try a Bakoon for my Nenuphars but cant find any dealers selling for much less than MSRP.  Every other brand Im interested in I can get at least 20% off. Its a pity 
Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure
Cant believe the dealer didnt have the Nenuphar’s hooked up to Tube Gear. Thats what is ALWAYS used at the trade shows. If he had Pass/First Watt gear around surprised he didnt use any of the SIT’s instead of the XA25. (I have Sit-1, Sit-3 and XA2... 
Why are Ayon tube amps not mentioned very often?
Has nothing to do with the quality of the product. This is a hobby of gear flippers for the most part. RE-SALE value is VERY important. Because of the lack of interest in Ayon (and many other brands) the resale value takes a huge hit from the init... 
Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure
Where are you getting this price on the Nenuphar's? MSRP??  I got mine in the "8's with a Custom Paint Job to boot. Have you actually heard this "magic speaker" you have concocted above?? Didnt think so....All Theory with no actual experience. Not... 
CD v Streamed
More recently mastered = Brickwalled/Compressed in most cases. CD’s of older titles from the 60’s thru 80’s sound best in their 1st generation masterings most of the time. Newer doesnt = better unless its been remixed by the likes of Steve Wilson/... 
CD v Streamed
George,   That doesnt apply if your a dealer in Jersey City. They have magic electricity over there that turns compression and brickwalling into stunning detail and clarity unavailable elsewhere. Id move there but the Carcinogens from the nearby g... 
Done selling on eBay, they are demanding my social security number to sell
Wrong Jiggy.  Starting next year you will get a 1099 from EBAY if you sell more than $600 worth of stuff. Its not Retroactive. As of right now the only way you will get a 1099 is from PAYPAL if you took in more than 200 payments a year AND hit the... 
Opinions on the ; Rosso Fiorentino Sienna or Volterra II Speakers
Check out the YOUTUBE Vid and that should tell you all you need to know. 
Opinions on the ; Rosso Fiorentino Sienna or Volterra II Speakers
I am in the process of ordering the ELBA 2's.  Whats REALLY Cool is they will paint them ANY Color you want for no extra money (You have to provide the paint code).  For a slight upcharge you can get the sides done in LEATHER instead of veneer/pai...
