The LV-105 is a distinctive hybrid amplifier combining solid-state circuitry with vacuum tubes in its signal path. This example has received extensive repair work to resolve several intermittent faults and restore reliable operation.
Because some original switches and potentiometers used in this model are difficult to source, several components were carefully repaired, rebuilt, or replaced with suitable NOS parts.

Our Thoughts RADAR AI

Against your recent comps, US$991 lands well above the US$767 75th percentile and far above the US$601 median, so this is an ambitious ask rather than a fair-market one. It would need unusually strong condition, standout provenance, or extras to justify itself versus the usual used range of US$468 to US$767.

That said, this is a respected vintage integrated: Luxman gear is valued for refined, smooth presentation, solid build, and an easy-to-live-with musical balance that still appeals to serious listeners. If it’s truly clean, original, and fully healthy, the upside is in buying a well-regarded classic that can anchor a system for years; at this price, I’d want proof of recent servicing, stable channels, and complete functionality before leaning in.

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."
