Beautiful Luxman Neoclassico Series

New Integrated and CD/DAC from Luxman are beautiful (in a quirky way). The integrated has meters, which I've never needed but always wanted. The Ad Copy says they're an exemplary design, well engineered, and have stunning sound. I haven't heard them but I'm more inclined to believe them because well, meters. Each just in under $3,000.

    Those are beautiful. I know a guy who has a prior iteration Luxman integrated with the meters and they’re incredible. Love those meters.

    Identically one Lux (Luxman) piece here -- it's pretty low-end (but it is, IMO, as aesthetically successful as most of their hardware, which is to say very successful).

    Great stuff has come from Lux, for a long, long time. They never quite gave up on vacuum tubes, either -- to their credit.
