Our Thoughts RADAR AI

This is a seller’s market for vintage Luxman power amps, and £2,659 for an M-07 looks ambitious rather than fair. Comparable used Luxman M-7/M-07-era listings I can find cluster more around roughly £1,600–£2,100, with nicer or rarer examples sometimes stretching higher, so this asking price sits above the usual used band rather than near it.

The M-07 is worth chasing because it’s a serious, well-regarded high-current stereo amp from Luxman’s late-’80s golden era: clean build, plenty of drive, and the kind of effortless control that suits demanding speakers. If this one is original, serviced, and complete with the right packaging, that helps justify the premium; if not, I’d want stronger evidence of recent maintenance and stable operation before paying this much for a unit of this age.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About Luxman

Luxman traces its origins to 1925 in Osaka, Japan, when brothers T. Hayakawa and K. Yoshikawa launched a radio equipment division within their Kinsuido picture frame import business, coinciding with Japan's inaugural radio broadcast. Initially importing components, the company soon pivoted to in-house manufacturing of transformers and switches, birthing the Luxman brand and establishing it as one of Japan's oldest electronic component makers. This heritage of precision engineering has endured through ownership shifts, including stints with Alpine and Samsung, before returning to Japanese hands in the early 2000s under dedicated Luxman Corporation.

The brand specializes in luxury high-end audio components, with a storied emphasis on amplifiers—both integrated and power models—preamplifiers, and receivers renowned for their warm, detailed sound. Luxman also produces turntables, CD players, tape decks, and speakers, alongside modern digital offerings like DACs, all handcrafted in Japan with custom parts and dual-mono designs for ultimate fidelity.

Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Luxman commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its timeless aesthetics, uncompromising build quality, and sonic refinement that bridges vintage warmth with cutting-edge performance. Classics like the 1970s CL-32 preamp and 1980s L-507 integrated amplifier fuel its collector appeal, while contemporary lines reaffirm its status as a boutique benchmark for those seeking "Ultimate Fidelity since 1925."
