Luxman LV-92 (1988–1991)
Documentation on the LV-92 is thin. The record shows a black integrated amplifier, made in Korea, produced from 1988 to 1991. It measures 438 × 110 × 278 mm and weighs 6 kg. That makes it a compact, modestly sized unit from Luxman's late-'80s lineup.
One Russian listing describes the LV-92 as a hybrid tube/transistor integrated amplifier - "Гибридный лампово-транзисторный интегральный усилитель" - but that is a single-source claim, not independently corroborated. If it's accurate, the LV-92 belongs with Luxman's hybrid designs rather than their solid-state-only offerings. Treat it with caution.
The one piece of owner testimony comes from a forum thread. A Head-Fi user who inherited the unit from their father was told it's "prolly from the mid 80's" and that "it would not hurt to open the hood and replace the capacitors." That is standard advice for gear of this age. A Russian seller described their unit as cosmetically very good for its age and working without complaints. Capacitor repair kits for the LV-92 turn up on eBay, which suggests recapping is the usual service concern.
