Luxman T-310U
The Luxman T-310U is a tuner from the 1970s. Very little paper survives on it. No original press materials, no period reviews, and no confirmed technical specifications have surfaced. What is known comes mostly from owner listings and a service manual reference.
The listings say the T-310U was described at the time of its release as "the ultimate in tuner technology." It has Dolby B circuits that let listeners receive Dolby FM radio broadcasts. A tape or cassette deck can also be routed through the decoder section to reduce playback noise. One seller notes the unit has been in their family since the 1970s, and that a PDF copy of the service manual for the closely related T-310 exists. The owner's manual is harder to come by.
Asking prices in recent classified listings have ranged from US$120 to US$750, plus CA$600 on Kijiji. That spread says more about the sellers than about the market. A Dutch service company (DP Audio) lists repair and restoration work on Luxman tuners.
Known facts, such as they are:
- Product type: Tuner
- Era: 1970s
- Feature: Dolby B circuits for FM broadcasts and tape decoding
- Accessories: Original double boxes sometimes included
- Documentation: Service manual available as PDF (for the T-310); owner's manual scarce
No technical specifications are documented in any source found so far - sensitivity, THD, frequency response, dimensions or weight. Anyone with a T-310U manual or measurements is welcome to send the details to the archive.
