Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
High current capacity can be indicated by amps that "double down", which means doubling their output power each time the load impedance is halved as you go down into 4, 2, or even 1 ohm loads. There are quite a few that double into 4 ohms, but fewer that can do it again into 2 or 1 ohms. If you're looking at higher power amps then the max power into really low impedances (like 2 or 1 ohm loads) can limit out due to available power of the incoming AC which may be either a 15A or 20A circuit. Amps like most Luxman and Accuphase are rated down to 1 ohms (in unbridged mode) but they get pretty expensive, and not all speakers require such power reserves and low impedance drive capacities so they can be considered overkill. Any amp is going to sound better when running well within its power ratings and not near its rated capacity. Another thing to keep in mind is that we're talking about solid state amps without output transformers here. Tube amps generally use output transformers (other than OTLs) and some solid state amps do as well like McIntosh, which will not increase power output into lower impedance loads.

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
Thanks audio bill; amp arrived today. Evidently, need a forklift here... I'm ordering a Rowland Capri 2 as the temporary pre amp. We'll see how this works.. Yep, the goal is migrating to the 900u combo. The Bel Canto EX DAC is another very strong contender since it has the DAC (better than the PSA DS II) and the streamer/Arender feature. Anyway, thanks for your comments.

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
I'm a pretty big guy but getting older and can relate regarding the weight of the M-900u... I had to use a dolly to move the amp which arrived strapped to a pallet, and then had to get help to unpack and move it into place on my rack. I'm sure you'll enjoy it, be sure to let us know how it goes!

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
what tube preamps work best with Luxman m900u? and is balanced or single ended the best route?

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
Sorry, but I couldn't not respond to this: "We can hear everything we measure, but we can't measure everything we hear" This is patently false. We can measure frequencies up to 100Ghz, and sound levels of 180db (a volcano explosion) and up. Can you hear all of that?
Actually, we can measure everything we hear, although not always know what to measure. maybe that is what you meant.

Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
That is true, but we also can’t measure and interpret things we can hear. We can’t measure soundstage and if we could, we wouldn’t be able to interpret it, in addition to other items such as tone.
I’m curious, you joined in 2015 and this is your first post?

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
Gotta agree with the rest of this thread. the Lux C-900u is superb. very well built, very well balanced smooth sound, very quiet.
For the price of admission its a high end bargin.

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
The PS Audio video parallels what Emmanuel Go of First Sound Audio told me about how he designs his preamp. I talked about it being an "Art" on Audionirvana and a poster "Tech" got all over me saying i was all wrong. It's all science. We can measure everything. I disagreed. I don't believe measurements are the end all. Science is needed to deaign the circuit. It's the "artist" who tweeks the circuit by ear to make it sound a certain way. Ot so I believe, and some builders I know practice.

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
Thinking about buying a M-900U because it has enough power for my Revel Salon 2 but your impression makes me want 2 for monos No home demo is available in my country so I have to buy them blind to replace my current Mcintosh MC462. Do you think one (or 2) Luxman M-900U(s) will be a good match with the Revel Salon 2?

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
The Salon 2’s need SLAM! With the wrong amps, they can sound like to woofers are broken. You need a bottom up amp. Bass first amp. May I suggest an Antilleon Evo.
The M900’s are beautiful sounding, wonderful mids and highs, but they aren’t a bass first amp.

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
Yes. I think I will get 2. When I began this hobby, me and my brother went to a shop to audition some hifi gears, the Mcintosh and Sonus Faber. I thought the system the shop played by then was Kharma speakers with 2 M-900Us when we stepped into the shop. We was blown away by the sound of Kharma and 900U pre pow, never thought that it could be such natural and life-like. But it was more than 3 years ago and I did not want to spend that much money for 'beginner' by then.

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
I agree that the Salon 2 need SLAM. The Mcintosh has slam but the slam is not refined. 2 subwoofers with Room Correction on my Anthem STR Preamp do the trick on the bass slam very well but the Mc's mid and high is not smooth and lack of 'flow'.
Luxman M900U is affordable in my country and it is only $10k for each here, I do like the silky smooth sound of the Luxman. I guess the 2 subwoofers will also do the trick on the M900U because I let the subs handle the sub-bass region (below 60hz) just like what I did with the Mcintosh. Do you think the trick works?
The Gryphon is overpriced and not available for demo in my country, I wouldn't want to spend that much money for something I can't audition.

Would the Luxman M900u form a good synergy with something like a Kharma? Thanks.

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
Thanks for sharing your experience and insights Mike.
How about my Focal Stella Utopia Evo's? 94db sensitivity, 8ohm nominal, 2.8ohm minimal, with 13" electromagnetic woofer. Would you recommend the M-900u in stereo or mono? Or would you recommend another amp all together?

Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
If it is Malaysia, then good luck with an audition. I live there and won’t be able to listen to a Boulder unless I drove over to Singapore to do so. The Boulder dealer for both Malaysia and Singapore also deal with the Focals.
Mark Levinson, Accuphase, ARC, Gryphon have got a good presence there not Boulder. Luxman had just came into the picture recently.

[QUOTE=robert1976;319158]Boulder is hard to audition at my current location. Would Focal Stella be good with Audionet Stern / Heisenberg, or the Humboldt?[/QUOTE
I don’t think there’s a Boulder dealer in Heaven._______________

Re: Luxman M900u Monos and C900u
I live in Malaysia.
BTW, I saw this video: Our room at the Florida Audio Expo 2020 - YouTube
How did you hook up two M-900u's in stereo? One for each speaker? Did you use the bi-amp function on the C-900u using unbalanced cables?
What's the difference compared to two M-900u's bridged in mono?
Thanks and I hope you can elaborate a bit

I upgraded the power supply on my Gigafoil v4 to a Weiss PSU 102. It’s very nice step up. But with the new model, you’re looking at $2000 before even investing in a SOTA linear power supply.
