This is still a seller’s market for the category, but the asking price is firmly in ambitious territory. At €10,900, it sits well above the €1,887 75th percentile and far beyond the €725 median, so this is not a casual bargain; it needs to be justified by exceptional cosmetic condition, complete packaging, and strong provenance.
That said, the M700/C700 pairing is well regarded for refined, powerful, beautifully controlled sound, and a demo set can be attractive if it’s genuinely lightly used and from a trusted dealer. The upside here is mainly convenience and reduced wear versus a private-sale pair, but at this level a buyer should verify exactly what’s included, whether both units are original spec, and whether any service history or warranty is transferable.
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."
