This beauty turned up just 2 days before Christmas after a 7 month wait, and oh boy was she worth the wait, absolutely incredible pre amplifier

Tone and space was the first thing I noticed and coming from a C-900u, I honestly was worried there wouldn't be a noticeable difference, how wrong I was,

Huge step up in every way, dynamics, tone, soundstage (depth & width) this pre amplifier is superb, to say I'm happy is an understatement

A few photos of the unit in all her glory

Congratulations on your new cl1000.
Heard the pre at the local Luxman distributor, it defiantly a step up from the C900U.
 
If the CL-1000 had a remote control, it would be perfect for me.

I thought the lack of remote control would bother me but once the volume is set then I don't have to change the level

I listen to CD's only, so volume gain is easy to set evertime you select a disc, streaming would be an issue I think as evertime to switch between albums on the fly the gain is so different

Thank you, and agreed the 1000 is a huge step from the 900u

Preamp without a remote? As good as it looks, that’s clearly a fumble.

I'm sure they felt it would compromise sound quality... at least it gives me a reason to stick with my treasured C-900u with its full function remote control. :)

It has tone control so a well designed remote control would not compromise sound quality.
 
anyone know if the CL-1000 phono stage is tubed? the web-site description doesn't specify, however from the photo it looks to be solid state.
