Anyone experienced the Luxman MQ-300 or/and The Air Tight ATM-300R?

Sorry I saw your question just now.

I went with the Nagra 300p that I found at a very attractive price in the used market.

I still believe the Luxman MQ-300 to be a far better sounding amp, but I wanted to see what a 20W push-pull would do for my system compared to a 8W SET (I have one already, so can compare).

But while auditioning in NYC I came across an integrated amp that I believe would be my endgame amp, which is what I am saving up for, want to get it sometime later this year. It did things to my music that I never heard an amp do. The Engstrom Arne.

I first read about it in the audioexotics forum, and after  listening to it I understood what those guys in that forum meant by the term "super high-end".

I have never heard of it but just googled it.
i am sure it sounds fantastic. Where have you demoed it?

I demoed it at Innovation Audio in NYC. The owner (I think) Elliot is a great guy and fantastic host and a knowledgeable audiophile.

thanks! I am in Brooklyn so I might check on it :)

Joining this late, but...I bought the MQ-300 last September, and with my Luxman C-900u preamp and D-06 SACD player with Tannoy Stirling GR speakers in my tiny Japanese condo, I have to say it sounds pretty sweet. The vocals are to die for. I put on the Tony Bennett/Bill Evans album, and man, I swear Tony was in the room. The 300B Takatsuki tubes are really extraordinary--but boy, they will be expensive to replace when they finally give up the ghost.

I went for Luxman since I live in Japan, so the price is lower, and domestically at least, their customer service is excellent.
