Diving into the world of tubes...help needed!


Hi all,
I'm seriously considering diving into the world of vacuum tubes.  I currently have Focal Aria 906s which I adore...but may upgrade those in the future as well to a floor standing speaker.  For the beginning though, they will be my speakers.  Looking for opinions on the below amps/preamps, especially the pairing of the Emotiva pre with the EVO 100!

My choices have been narrowed down to:
  • PrimaLuna Prologue Classic Integrated Amp - would likely pair with a Schiit Loki to have tone control
  • PrimaLuna EVO 100 Power Amp - paired with EMOTIVA PT-100 preamp, would likely pair with Loki as well
  • Vincent SV-237MK Integrated Amp - needs nothing additional
Thanks in advance for your assistance :)

I believe Primaluma US distributor is right here in La Verne, CA 

upsacleaudio.com

i checked out the primaluna line there, but ended up going with Line Magnetic 805ia and I’m loving it. Both Chinese. Both have premium features like point to point wiring, and high quality attenuators etc.

I got the Line Magnetic at perfect pitch audio in palm desert, CA. Super service from them.
