At £7,187, this sits well above the usual used ask for this model: against your comps, it’s above the 75th percentile at £6,381 and roughly £1,600 over the £5,580 median, so I’d call it ambitious rather than fair. If you’re comparing it with the obvious alternative at this money, there should be either stronger condition, a standout provenance, or meaningful extras to justify the premium.
That said, the L-507Z is a serious integrated: it’s well liked for its authoritative grip, smooth but lively presentation, and the kind of build quality that tends to age better than many rivals. If it’s genuinely clean, well cared for, and complete, it can still be a worthwhile buy for someone who wants a long-term keeper — but at this asking price I’d want proof of condition, service history, and what’s included before paying up.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
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."
