Anybody have experience with either? Have read great reviews of each of them.
Seriously?
Have we ever seen bad reviews? 😁
I got the PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium HP, used, from a friend who I have gotten other amps from. It seems a bit light on bass, but it was after a change to a new house and room, so I am still working through it. And It’ll probably be better once I get the VandySub hooked up, and the remote is fun to use.
If your example is an integrated, then it seems like it is a different model?
Also I did get some KT120s but have not put them in yet, so if you get the PL then hold off and you can consider upgrades later. I kind of rushed in, but I might sell it locally, as I have been seriously been considering either Purifi based class-D or Atmasphere.
It was $2k (USD) used and the full tube upgrade was ~1200 AUD (900 USD).
It is definitely good enough, and sounds pretty good. What you are driving them with could help to know. I feel like it is marginal on power and it is rated something like 40W Triode and 80W UL.
There is no dishonour in a demo unit, going slow, or more hand wringing.
I baiscally needed and amp, and this was sitting there, so I got it.
