Primaluna and Rogue

Hey all, I've done a lot of reading on the Rogue Audio and Primaluna gear. I Like what I've read, and I actually heard the m150's a while back and came away impressed. I have not personally listened to any Primaluna gear.

Do any of you have thoughts either way? I'm looking at Prologue 6 & 7, vs. Rouges m120 and M150. A lot will have to do with what becomes available on Audiogon, but I am prepared to purchase Prologue 6 new if necessary. Thanks

I love the sound of my PL 7 on my Soliloquy 6.5 (91db) speakers. I tried driving these with a PL 5 and although it sounded grand, the bass has more authority and control with the 7s.

Tube rolling is critical to get the sound you like.

Hawk28, what did you end up getting? I use my Primaluna 7s with a First Sound Presence Deluxe and I can tell you the match is simply grand! I've been using EH KT88s because that is all I can afford, but I've rolled many a driver tube with great results.

Interesting enough, I've actually get the best sound in my system using 12AT7 in place of the 12AX7 tubes. Its actually quite amazing how much more open my Soliloquy 6.5 speakers sound with these. I recommend others to try this.
