My local Luxman dealer has a new 505u he will let me audition at home.

I also found a slightly used (1.5 yrs) 507u for sale at a good price w/warranty.
I may go this route.

How is Luxman reliability overall?
I should have added that in the I wouldn't decide on the 505 or 507 until you have a listen to a 550 or 590. Class "A" makes all the difference to my ears. Just seems to have an iron grip on the speakers, very controlled.
