Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • I just bought the Luxsin X9. It's such a cool all in one
  • Decided on the He1000 Stealth and got a Luxsin X9 to pair with it. Pretty amazing so far.
  • They sound quite close either through the X9 or the DX5ii but through the X9 it sounds even more relaxed....marginally.

Cons

  • I bragged about how my $200 plastic JDS Labs Atom Stack (1st Gen) sounded identical to my new, much more expensive Luxsin X9.
  • I feel like the Luxsin X9 is a beautiful piece of hardware. The knob feel is premium, the chassis is gorgeous, and it looks great on my desk. But let's be real: are we just paying for the chassis?
  • It sounds nice but I don't think it sounds like a £1k amp that you expect. I expect to be blown away everytime I use it but I am not. It's good but there are many others cheaper ones that is just as nice sounding. Like the X8, it's 1/3rd...

It's good but there are many others cheaper ones that is just as nice sounding. Like the X8, it's 1/3rd cheaper and I would personally get that over the X9. It's also much more desk friendly.
