Luxman E-07 Phono Stage

The Luxman E-07 Phono Stage is available for demonstration in our Hull store by request.

For over a century, Luxman has been a pioneer in high-fidelity audio engineering. As it approaches its 100th anniversary in 2025, the company continues its tradition of excellence with the Luxman E-07, an all-solid-state phono equalizer amplifier crafted to elevate analog playback to new heights. This cutting-edge component offers superior sound quality, clarity, and precision, making it an essential upgrade for any audiophile’s turntable setup.

High-Performance Engineering for Superior Vinyl Playback

The Luxman E-07 is engineered to capture and amplify every sonic nuance with absolute fidelity. By leveraging a state-of-the-art NF-type equalization circuit, it ensures low distortion and an exceptionally high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). This delivers a warm, immersive listening experience that brings vinyl records to life.

Standout Features:

• Balanced MC Cartridge Inputs – The E-07 supports differential signal input, optimizing stereo separation and preserving output energy for an uncompromised audio experience.

• Advanced Low-Noise Circuitry – Equipped with a parallel four-FET configuration, the phono amplifier minimizes distortion and ensures clear, dynamic playback.

• Premium Step-Up Transformer for MC Cartridges – Featuring a super permalloy core, this advanced transformer enhances responsiveness to minute audio signals.

• Versatile Load Impedance & Capacitance Selection – With a six-position rotary selector (4.7Ω – 1kΩ for MC, 34kΩ – 100kΩ for MM) and adjustable capacitance settings (0/100/220/320pF), precise fine-tuning is effortless.

Advanced Chassis Design for Optimal Sound Quality

To ensure pristine audio performance, Luxman integrates sophisticated vibration control and interference-reducing technologies:

• Loopless Chassis Structure – Effectively isolates the power supply from the amplifier sections, minimizing ground impedance and enhancing clarity.

• Ultra-Thick Copper Base – The 3.6mm stacked copper plating enhances stability, lowers the center of gravity, and reduces unwanted resonance.

• Density Gradient Cast Iron Feet – These high-density insulators minimize vibrations, preserving the integrity of your music.

High-Capacity Power Supply for Unmatched Stability

Power inconsistencies can degrade sound quality. To combat this, the E-07 boasts an advanced multi-transformer power system:

• Three Independent Power Transformers – Dedicated transformers for left and right channels ensure zero crosstalk and interference.

• Audiophile-Grade Block Capacitors – Featuring 10,000µF x 5 capacitors, the E-07 maintains peak voltage stability.

Enhanced Playback Features

The E-07 is packed with high-end functionalities designed for serious vinyl collectors:

• Low-Cut Filter – Eliminates unwanted low-frequency noise and prevents woofer instability from warped records.

• Mono Mode Switch – Perfect for playing mono records with enhanced clarity.

• Articulator Function – Uses the record’s signal current to demagnetize the cartridge and transformer, preserving long-term performance.

• Phase Inversion Switch – Provides seamless integration with various audio setups.

• Independent Gold-Plated Brass Grounding Terminals – Eliminates electrical noise and enhances signal purity.
