PRIMA LUNA AMPLIFIERS

Hi 

I,m thinking of buying a Prima Luna amplifier but worried re reliability, and what you do in the UK if you have problems.

Would like to hear what owners think about reliability, tube changes , tube upgrades, potential problems,
And what happened if you had problems re after sales repair and support.



i,m going to use them with Proac D20 r floorstanders .

 Thanks in advance for your help

don't forget if you want to get more of an organic sound from the PL amps or any amp for that matter, need to replace the coupling caps with Jensen or Jupiter copper foil caps.

Not sure about the latest EVO amps but the dialogue and prologue used SCR and clone  SCR type caps. Very reliable, but not very musical sounding.

There has also been quite a swing in Chinese tube quality over the last 8-10 years. Today's tubes are quite good, and do not have that thin, bright brittle sound the earlier chinese tubes were known for.

happy listening.
