Soundstage.com Reviews Luxman C-900u Preamp...
...and awards it the Reviewers Choice award: SoundStage! Hi-Fi | SoundStageHiFi.com | Luxman C-900u Preamplifier
This preamp and its matching power amp (M-900u Stereo amp) look like they are going to be quite the offering. Jeff Fritz has also kind of previewed what he thought of this pairing here: SoundStage! Global | SoundStageGlobal.com | Jawdroppers from Japan: Luxman?s C-900u Preamp and M-900u Amp and he seems to be a big fan.
Here are some pics of the matching stereo amp (M-900u):

Nice looking gear. I've heard some older Luxman pieces in the past and was impressed with their performance.
However, a $19K pre + $19K amp won't generate much WAF in my house!
