Luxman L550A-II user manual

[Martin's Lux]

I'm looking for the L550A-II (not the newer L550AX-II) user manual.
Is there anybody who could provide me a .pdf copy or a link to an English manual (not the Japanese which I did find).

Many thanks in advance.

I don't see any either. Maybe contact Luxman?

Thanks for the effort, I already contacted the local distributor of Luxman

Hi, were you able to locate a copy? I'm trying to try to use the L550Aii as a pre-amp and connect the preamp out to a VTL ST-85. On the previous model L550AX and the recently discontinued L550AXii there is a button you push labelled "seperate" in order to to able use it for that function. However on the L550Aii there is no such button. I'm wondering if it's triggered automatically when the connection is made rather than a purpose built button? I'm erring on the side of caution until I know for certain as it could otherwise be an expensive mistake!

Images on the web show the L550AII has jumpers between the preamp output and power amp input. Usually just removing them will separate the units and you can run from the pre out pair to your amp.

Yes, thanks. I found the balls to just try it as it really couldn't be any other way given the lack of a separate switch. Lots of heat being thrown off though with the St-85 AND the L550Aii. Couldn't live with it in the Summer months. Just awaiting the arrival of a new tube set for a VTL Ultimate I just purchased to insert as preamp.
