Seller's Description

Verkaufe meinen defekten Luxman PD-291 wie auf den Bildern zu sehen, ohne Tonabnehmer. Das Gerät hält die Drehzahl nicht mehr und die Automatik funktioniert nicht mehr richtig.
Vielleicht kann es jemand als Ersatzteillager nutzen.

Our Thoughts RADAR AI

At €120, this sits a bit above the €100 median and above the €110 75th percentile from your recent comparable listings, so it reads as slightly ambitious rather than a bargain. It is not wildly off, but on your own market data it’s priced at the top end of the current used range, which matters even more since it’s listed for_parts.

That said, this is a respected belt-drive Luxman deck, and the appeal is the classic Japanese build quality, good motor/plinth execution, and the fact that there’s real upside if the core parts are intact. For a parts buyer, the value is in the headshell, platter, arm, motor, dustcover, and any original accessories; if any of those are missing or damaged, the price loses its shine fast. If it’s complete and clean, it’s a reasonable buy for someone specifically harvesting or restoring.

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."
