Angeboten wird „L-509Z“ von Luxman als Neugerät aus der Kategorie „Vollverstärker“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 8271254722 endet am 07.10.2026 um 06:23 Uhr.
At €12,990, this Luxman L-509Z asking price sits just above the €10,626 median of recent EUR comparable listings but remains well below the €19,986 75th percentile, making it a fair, not ambitious, price for a unit in “new (EUR)” condition. The listing is priced slightly higher than two recent used asks at €8,800 and €9,500, but that gap is justified by the pristine condition and the fact that current retail sits around €13,000.
The L-509Z is a top-tier Japanese integrated praised for its ultra-low-noise U-CTC circuit, lush analog warmth, and 120W into 8Ω that drives most speakers with authority. Its separate preamp/amp architecture and high-quality transformers give it flagship-level refinement, and buying it now at near-new condition with likely full accessories means you’re getting a nearly new flagship for less than retail. This is a solid buying opportunity for enthusiasts who value tone, dynamics, and build quality without paying full new markup.
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."
