Primaluna Dialogue One or Line Magnetic 218IA?

Wound up getting the lm218 after some ear time. I found it to be quite dynamic and yet lush without sounding overtly euphonic. Listening to a living stereo piano recording at the moment and am excited by the realism of the combo.

I accidentally put the wrong amp in the title. It is the 216IA (KT-88, not the SET 845) It is 22w in triode and 38 UL. On acoustic tracks, solo guitar, cello, etc. it is okay with triode. In ultra linear it hasn't had any issues driving them. I ind it does sound better hooked to the 4 ohm taps, even though nominal impedance of the Vandys is 7. I must admit that I am not a concert-level listener so that helps, but they can get up and rock with some Zeppelin when asked.

Oops, wrong model number. Should have been 216ia. It is a KT 88, not the 845. The 218 is about $1500 more....

A good question. Not really, it is more of a matter of wondering if I am missing out on anything I am unaware of in the Dialogue.
