Luxman’s new generation Z series integrated amplifiers. The L-507Z is the debut model heralding our new generation of amplifier products. Featuring our newly developed LIFES amplification feedback engine, we look towards the future of Luxman. This amplifier has realized a dramatic development in musicality that goes far beyond its class. L-507Z combines advanced technology and sophisticated functionality. Our new, innovative Z series integrated amplifier generation begins with this superb model.
Luxman will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2025 and is proud to announce the successor to our ODNF* feedback circuitry, which has contributed to the audio quality of our amplifier products since 1999. Luxman has developed a new amplifier feedback circuit, LIFES*, which has acquired realistic, fresh, rich musicality and overwhelming audio performance. LIFES is based on the technical concept of our epoch-making ODNF circuit and realizes excellent, dynamic characteristics without feeding back any of the original audio input signals to the main amplifier, achieving a remarkably natural sound quality, almost if it were a non-feedback-equipped circuit. The design has been conceived and expanded upon from first principles using simulation technology and painstaking research. By repeatedly auditioning, rigorously scrutinizing, and combining specially selected components, we have achieved supreme performance characteristics and a level of quality suitable for use in Luxman’s next-generation products. In producing LIFES Version 1.0, by carefully reimagining the entire circuit, we succeeded in reducing the number of paralleled elements while improving performance. The distortion in the amplification stage has been reduced to less than half of our previous system. The output stage features a 3-stage Darlington triple-paralleled push-pull configuration and achieves a class AB power output of 110W+110W (8Ω) and 210W+210W (4Ω). The high output power, comparable to that of a separate power amplifier, effortlessly realizes a natural soundstage, full of energy, to confidently drive any compatible speaker system and bring out the best of its characteristics.
Needle-type analog VU meters are a symbolic design statement of Luxman’s solid-state integrated amplifiers. The L-507Z is equipped with a large dual meter with bright LED back-lighting and high response characteristics. Luxman has adopted such a display so the movement of the needles synchronizes with the dynamics of your music. In addition, the newly included 7-segment LEDs display the attenuation level in between the left and right level meters so that the current attenuation amount can be easily seen from the listening position. The level meter back-lighting and LED display can be turned on and off using the remote control.
The rectangular chassis housing design features an ultra-thick front panel with a high-quality, blasted white finish. This has become a brand identifier of current Luxman products, with a delicate hairline finished aluminum top panel, and a luxurious exterior design adopted for our high-grade amplifiers. The large ventilation slots on the top panel provide sufficient airflow and the entire chassis housing is fabricated from aluminum panels, providing excellent heat dissipation, and ensuring the stable operation of this product.
Luxman’s New LECUA1000 88-step, electronically controlled attenuator is integrated into the amplifier circuit minimizing sound quality degradation over the full range of volume control. The output section of the preamplifier is equipped with discrete buffer circuitry that confidently drives the subsequent power amplifier stage.
A highly stable, custom-made EI-type power transformer and newly developed, large-capacity filter capacitors (10,000μFx 8) are combined in the power supply unit, which provides instantaneous current supply and voltage stability, easily meeting the demands of dynamic music reproduced through capable speakers.
The L-507Z employs many of Luxman’s unique technologies. Beeline construction directs audio input signals via the optimum shortest route through to the speaker output and non-angled circuit board tracing realizes smooth current transmission. A loop-less chassis structure isolates the effects of ground impedance.
The L-507Z features a variety of functions, such as the built-in, newly developed MM/MC compatible phono amplifier circuit that supports high-quality analog playback. Sensitive tone controls, L balance control and a loudness function are convenient for sound quality adjustments. The separate function uncouples the pre and power amplification system and a new mute button has been added to the front panel.
In addition to the standard φ6.3mm output, a new φ4.4mm output has been added, with independent left and right ground wiring that greatly improves L-R separation for the listener who wants to enjoy truly three-dimensional sound.
