Design


Like all Luxman integrated amplifiers, the L-505Z features classic vintage design cues:

  • Large backlit VU meters

  • Rotary tone and adjustment controls

  • Large rotary volume and input controls

The fit and finish of the L-505Z befits an amplifier made in Japan. Every rotary control moves with precision and every button returns a solid, tactile sensation. This attention to detail on the outside hints at the same approach on the inside, all in aid of capturing the fine nuances in your favourite music.

 

Technology


It may be their entry-level model but that doesn’t mean that the L-505Z isn’t packed with advanced technology to help you get the most out of your favourite music. Inside you’ll find such Luxman technologies as:

  • LECUA analog volume control

  • LIFES amplifier feedback technology

  • Highly regulated power supply

Recognizing the delicacy of audio signals and the importance of every component in the signal chain, Luxman’s attention to detail extends to every facet of the design, including the layout and topology of the circuit boards. Short signal paths and internal OFC wiring all aim to maintain signal purity which is how Luxman delivers fine detail you’ve never heard before, even in your favourite songs.


 

Creative Audio Pro Tips


  • The Luxman L-505Z will sound great right out of the box, but will sound even better after 200 hours of use.

  • Always keep the top of the amplifier clear to allow for adequate ventilation. Do not place the unit in a closed cabinet.

  • We always recommend quality interconnect cables both from your source(s) as well as to your speakers.
