Luxman can bring tears to your eyes if you love Opera, the soul and feeling come right through, the hall also just makes for such a believable and emotional sound, all that a system should give you and rarely does be it tubes or solid state. Luxman makes great gear and for once you can see the value and the money you spent, just the built quality alone, and I can tell I've seen some gear ultra-expensive and not built to the level of Luxman, just take the cover off of them, Constellations comes to mind at 50K.
