The needs of the Hi-Fi enthusiast are often very different from the needs of the guitar amplifier enthusiast. This is reflected in the valves we recommend to ensure you get the very best tone and performance.

What Luxman say about the amp

“The LX-380 represents a new era in golden ‘38’ series vacuum tube integrated amplifiers from LUXMAN. Providing an exceptionally deep resonance of sound sources of various ages and genres, the LX-380 combines LECUA* – a computerized attenuator which carefully reproduces the dynamism of each performance – with a power amplifier circuit that expresses the rich musicality of the 6L6GC output tube. Housed in a wooden case that is reminiscent of the 28 series, the LX-380 appeals to a new generation with a winning combination of cutting-edge technology and traditional know-how. *LECUA is an abbreviation of Luxman Electric Controlled Ultimate Attenuator.”
