Luxman L-505Z
Image source - (c) Luxman
The Luxman L-505Z combines a line integrated amplifier and an onboard phono section, and it is the entry point into Luxman's L-series of integrated amplifiers.
Key specs that matter
Output power is 100 W per channel into 8 ohms and 150 W into 4 ohms, with a damping factor of 200. Rated bandwidth runs from 20 Hz to 100 000 Hz. The L-505Z reaches 104 dB signal-to-noise and keeps THD+N at 0.09%. For connections there is one balanced input, four single-ended line inputs and a phono input. Line input sensitivity is 180 mV, and input impedance is 55,000 ohms balanced and 47,000 ohms single-ended. The current-sensing phono input presents 47,000 ohms for moving-magnet cartridges and 100 ohms for moving-coil ones. The chassis measures 440 x 178 x 454 mm and weighs 22.5 kg.
Pairing
The onboard MM and MC phono input lets the L-505Z take a turntable directly, with no outboard phono box required.
Alternatives
The Luxman L-507Z sits one step above it in the same L-series range with more output.
