The Luxman
R-117 combines the state-of-the-art
technology of separate components into one affordable receiver.
Total Sonic
Integrity
All Luxman
receivers incorporate massive power supp;ies to deliver high dynamic power. The
R-117 measures over 700 watts of dynamic power per channel (2 ohms) to ensure
distortion-free transients. The
pre-amplifier section combines several Luxman exclusive circuit designs to
optimize sonic accuracy, and the AM/KM stereo tuner is sonically competitive
with the finest separate tuner in the world.
In all, the
R-117 receiver provides the purity and musical warmth of the original source,
plus the high dynamic power output necessary to ensure total sonic integrity at
all volume levels.
Audio/Video
remote Capability
The R-117
includes a hand-held remote to control the major functions of each Luxman audio
component. In addition, the R-117 handpiece can select up to three video
sources, and professional-grade video amplifiers are incorporated to maintain a
high-quality picture. This single component will function as a complete audio
and video control center with total remote capability.
Multi-Room
Expandability
The R-117
also interconnects with an external remote eye to allow complete system
operation from any room in your house. With a simple installation of cables and
accessories, virtually all functions of the master system can be controlled at
each remote location. This multi-room concept can be expanded at anytime in the
future to include additional rooms.
Long-Term
Durability
A previous
advantage of separate components over receivers has been in the area of
durability. The R-117 is designed with a no-compromise approach to longterm
reliability and is backed by a 5 year parts and labor warranty (the best in the
industry)
The Luxman
R-117 receiver is simply the finest sounding, most versatile, most reliable
receiver in the world, the ultimate
component to upgrade your audio/video system.
"Ultimate
Power" Recivers
The new
R-117 receivers are excellent examples of Luxman's "Ultimate Power" amplifier designs.
The R-117,
rated at 160 watts per channel, is capable of supplying up to 600 watts of
dynamic power into 4 ohms loads, and 700 dynamic watts into 2 ohms. The
amplifier section is backed by a massive triple-shialded high-energy power
transformer and fast-recovery rectifier diodes to maintain high energy reserves
under all load conditions.
Both
incorporate a new 5-gang varactor, dual-gate MOSFET FM front end, with
automatic hi-blend circuitry, that ensures clean, distortion-free FM
performance. The receivers employ voltage amplifications circuitry that ensures
the "tube-like", musical warmth of traditional Luxman amplifiers. In
addition, CD Straight circuitry routes CD input signals past all signal
processor and switching functions to provide optimum accuracy, imaging and
impact. Complementing this performance are an array of advanced features that
lend versatility and precise control over a wide range of functions . Both the R-117 even include a hand-held
remote that can operate a complete system of components.
The Ultimate
Upgrade
All three
Luxman receivers include pre-out connections for upgrading in power output to
the awesome M-117 power amplifier.
