Primaluna?

I’m thinking about giving a full tube setup a go and Primaluna in particular.  Looking to hear people’s experiences with Primaluna in general. My main draw to them outside of tubes is there auto bias and protective features.  Wondering if people generally replace a single bad tube or if people are replacing all tubes of that type when there’s a failure.  Also would be interested if there were any other companies with at least a similar protective feature. The auto bias sounds great but the protective features are a bigger deal to me.

Another PL owner here. integrated evo400.

 

I just wanted a tube amp that worked without me needing to use a screwdriver and multimeter (though i have both).

I've experienced the "bad tube indicator" on the PL and been able to change that tube without anything blowing up.

PL apparently run the tubes very lightly and you should experience years of service from them. 

the triode/ultralinear button on the remote makes this option a breeze.

Be careful of your back if you need to carry it anywhere. I don't think a thief could get very far with mine in hand.
