Hi GreginNH1,
Have you received your's? I was told mine is back ordered and earliest arrival would likely be Mid August, a month later. Oh well, patience rewards those who can wait ... If you did, share your views, at least I can share your joy and look forward to receiving mine in August (hope they stick to mid Aug and not pushed further back).
Cheers

I did not order one. My dealer has a demo unit coming in.

Purchased but not available as yet. Initially was told delivery early August but now pushed back to early September. Long wait ...... itch is unbearable as I wanted to test out the 2 features - MQA CD Playback, Roon support slitty (USBA hard wired).

As per long standing Luxman tradition the XLR output connections have pin 3 as hot (signal) like Burmester, rather than most manufacturers in the world that use pin 2.
Luckily for global users they fitted a ‘phase invert’ button on the front panel to manage this aspect. [emoji106]

Yup! Mine finally came on Friday 4th Sep. Beautiful machine and what a blast. I don't know for sure (can never made a direct A/B comparison with Esoteric K-01XD or the dCS Rossini) but first impression is this is one excellent machine. Music simply is so natural and real. Smooth and not a tinge of harshness even for files. Ive posted pictures of my system in another thread so won't be doubling this here. Retirement had never been so busying exciting for me ... listening to music everyday. Looks like my plan to have a spare set of the Takatsuki 300B's is warranted.
