I saw that as well and wonder if Luxman returned manufacturing of the Neo Classical line back to Japan from China. This is not meant as a knock on Luxman as they did it for cost savings, oversaw the quality, and passed on the savings to consumers, with the older version (a savings of $1K).

That unit had a slightly different finish once to was outsourced to China but I read, somewhere, that the sound didn’t suffer from it.

It’s just that there’s a certain cache one derives from getting it from Luxmans’s home country.

All the best,
