Prima Luna Vs Accupahse


I am looking to get out of my Arcam SA20 and upgrade soon. I have the opportunity to get a good deal on both a used Prima Luna Evo300 Hybrid and used Accuphase E-280. My main speakers for now are the Focal Aria 936K2 but plan on getting Tannoy’s later. Which one would yall say is the better amp. Thank yoi!

I own the PL integrated amp and the Focal 936s. I’m in heaven. I rolled to the 150 power tubes and have two Rel Subs. The synergy is sublime.... IMHO

 

edit: FWIW...... I do not have the hybrid PL, straight tubes. For what it’s worth, my digital end, a separate streamer and dac... fairly high end at 6k and 5k, the Focals are way brighter than my analog side; a tube phono pre amp and the PL. Not unbearably bright.... just brighter.

Another way I'd describe my sound is:  My analog side is, as you put it.... " rich warm sound, Detailed and above all, musical.  My digital side is analytical and more bright.  I like both sides for it gives me variety.  Both sides take me places my car can't!  Both sides blow me away.
