Luxman DML-01 Dual monolithic IC's as the title says. These were used in a number of Luxman amps such as the 5M21/5M20, 5L15, M12 & L10.
These IC's were problematic and as I found out you ended up with a nice doorstop when they failed and fail they would. I certainly wasn't the first but I found a work around and since then quite a number of wonderful Luxman amps have lived to create music another day.
Due to the number of inquiries I've had over the course of time I thought I'd come up with something that one without the technical ability or means could pretty much just drop in place. All you need to do is be able to de-solder/solder some pins, use a DMM and follow some simple instructions.
Pictured is my solution to the original IC. With a labour of love and that sense of diy pride I hand make each one. I don't think they are too bad either if I do say so myself 🙂

hey are you still making these, I just bought an 5m20 and 5m21 and it looks like they did a workaround and not actually replace it, i would love to get some of these from you if you still make them, thanks
