MB-3045 is his best work with Luxman. A true classic.

Have you attempted to contact him at the EAR/Yoshino site? It might be worth a try. Tell us if he replies. :yes:

Just an educated guess re the M-2000, since the M-6000 was a special
Luxman anniversary project Tim was brought in.
The M-6000 was a fairly low production run and not inexpensive as I recall
$3000?
To get some additional mileage from the endeavor the M-4000 and later the
M-4000A were added to the line with essentially the same circuit design
but lower WPC. And the M-4000A being MOSFET.
The M-2000 being still later in production and not the same circuit design would make it IMO unlikely designed by Tim Paravicini.
But hey thats my guess.

Here's an interview from 1984 about his involvement with Luxman. You might find your answer (and many more!) there.

Edit: No you can't.

I am sorry that I never noticed this forum and thread. I will reply more fully next time as I notice some comments about my history and wish to correct some facts as to my work when I was at Lux Corp back in the 70s.
There has been some non complementary things floating around the web and it appears
that I have been oblivious to the outside world.

That's the only one I'm aware that had TdP's design input.

Welcome sir.
As chicks rightly said, it is an honour to have you here and even more a blessing to have you dispel some deviations from the truth which abound on the internet.
There were others as TdP will himself reveal.
I remember reading the interview and being intrigued by the 509 amp.

Agreed, plus if you have any of those old tube amps laying around, which no one listens to anymore I'd be more then happy to take them off your hands.
