    Luxman R-1070 - can’t believe I scored one

    Hello AK Gurus! I scored a Luxman 1070 at an auction for $350, untested. They don’t show up that often, so I couldn’t pass it up. It arrived. All lights worked, pots, glass, all clean. Didn’t play last night and I went to bed doing some research. This morning I took the jumpers out of an...

    Luxman R-1050 vs Pioneer SX 737 - no contest

    I have a Luxman R-1050 and I absolutely love it. Well, I came across an immaculate Pioneer SX 737 (see pic) for $350 and I had to pick it up. It was little light upon carrying it, but the controls, the color, the POWER SWITCH, like buttah. So, I take out the Luxman to see how the Pioneer 737...

    Luxman r-1050 quick question

    Hello, a long time ago I received a luxman r-1050 with a bad channel. I replaced all the blown parts except for the driver transistors which I need help with. I lost track of the 2 good driver transistors so I have no idea what models to order. I'm pretty sure the pair consisted of a 2SD427 and...

    Luxman R-1050 Amplifier part as standalone?

    Greetings. I wonder if it is possible to separate the R-1050 amplifier part from the rest and use it as a standalone.
