Joe...I asked my dealer and he has the M-600A not the M-800A which may not be enough for my Thiels but I may still borrow the M-600A and see how it works with my speakers.

I'd really like to read your take on it. I was very, very close to buying one M-800A before I bought my 911mk3. Joe |

Jim.......Have you seen the Luxman M-800A classified on Agon? He will sell a pair for under half price according to the ad.

Luxman came out with a replacement for the 590AII, the 590AX. It has ODNF3.0 instead of 2.2, among other changes. It is heavier by 1.7kg too.

I only spent a couple hours listening to the unit yesterday as I watched some college basketball in the afternoon and the Red Wings last evening. I might only get a couple of hours in today as Linda and I are going to the movies this afternoon.
I will keep you posted. Jim |

Regarding the heat. Before I started listening this morning I checked the temperature of the unit in several locations. (See attached photo) At the center of the top, the unit was 66F When I measured the air temp coming from the Right and Left grilles on top, they were 68F. After about a 90 minutes of listening at low to mid volume: The center of the top is now 89F. The temperature over the two grilles is about: 147F towards the right rear 155F in the right middle 140F towards right front 130F towards the left rear 139F in the left middle 110F towards left front Jim |

Jim, maybe it should be McIntosh in summer and Luxman in winter.

Thanks Jim - that is quite warm indeed. Is there an air circulation restriction that could be causing the 30 degree difference between right/left fronts?
