I'm doing some remodeling and my contractor was over yesterday and saw my system. Turns out he has a couple of Luxman amps lying around not in use. No model numbers were discussed, but he did mention that one was a monster, circa 1989, that weighs around 75lbs.

I'm going to audition, but can someone with some knowledge shed some light on Luxman amps?

Thanks.

    The big one most likely is an M-117. A lot of amp at around 200 WPC. They go regularly on auction sites upwards of $400.

    This is from the Alpine/Lux era not as heralded as earlier gear but still solid build and great sounding stuff.
