Lux Vacuum tube integrated amplifier Neo Classico LUXMAN SQ-N150 JAPAN

  

The "Neo Classico" released by Luxman in 2007 was revived for the first time in 11 years, becoming "Neo Classico II". It is developed not as a mere Mark II but as a high-end model. Of course, like the previous work, it will be commercialized in A4 size.

The vacuum tube pre-main amplifier "SQ-N150" has 10W + 10W (6) output by push-pulling four [EL84 (6BQ5)] into the output tube of the power amplifier section as in the previous work. However, although it is the same [EL84], a more reliable Slovak JJ vacuum tube is used this time. This unit has a hybrid configuration in which the preamplifier section is solid state. The previous work only supported MM cartridges, but this time it also has a built-in full-scale head amplifier to support MC cartridges, so it seems that you can enjoy high-level analog record performance.

In addition to the volume control and line straight switch on the front panel, this time also equipped with two LR output meters with LED lighting, it seems to entertain the music with the movement of the meter like the company's high-end amplifier. In addition, input switching, tone control and a new balance adjustment volume are provided on the top of the chassis. In developing this "SQ-N150, " we aim to inject the know-how gained from the development of the company's "LX-32u" and "LX-380" so that you can enjoy abundant vacuum tube sound rather than drive power for a long time. With the initial anxiety due to the size, not only the small bookshelf but also the large speakers let me hear the sound. It was enough to make me feel that "this is enough" for the voluminous and elastic vocals of a tube amp. The honest impression is that it really sounds like 10W. I felt that this sense of temperature and humidity was unique to a vacuum tube.

The blaster white case of this Neo Classico II, which does not expose the screws to the surface and has a sharp design that makes the most of the edges, has a high-class feel that is similar to the company's high-end equipment. What's more, you will be able to fully enjoy the joy of having it, and its stylish design will satisfy your desire to own even though it is small. It is a compact audio system that you should use as a subsystem for music fans who want to listen to music in a fun and relaxed manner, and as a subsystem for audiophiles to relax and listen, rather than pursuing only sound quality.
