Overview For sale is a beautiful Luxman L-480 Duo-Beta Integrated Amplifier, made in Japan and configured for U.S. 120V / 60Hz operation. This is a highly desirable vintage Luxman integrated amplifier featuring the classic Duo-Beta circuit design, working LED output meters, MM/MC phono capability, tuner, aux, tape connections, pre-out/main-in connections with jumpers installed, and main/remote speaker outputs.
