Unknown condition makes USD 293 a stretch rather than a bargain. Your comparable listings put the market at a USD 209 median, with USD 251 marking the 75th percentile; this ask sits clearly above that range. Unless it has documented servicing or unusually excellent cosmetics, there is room to negotiate toward the low-to-mid USD 200s.
The LV-100 is a worthwhile vintage integrated: a compact 1987 Luxman with roughly 40 watts per channel, a useful MM phono stage, broad line-level connectivity, and a clean, lively presentation suited to efficient-to-moderate loads. Before paying the premium, confirm both channels are quiet, the protection relay engages normally, every input switch works, and the low-cut and mute functions behave correctly. Age-related contact and relay issues are known concerns, so an unknown-condition example should not command top-of-market money.
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."
