Upscale Audio and Primaluna


spoke to aggresive salesperson who pushed prima luna integrated amps and other primaluna gear.

this was after i called to buy another component.  Anyone know about primaluna stuff.

all this guy did was tear into my system saying how deficient it is and that i should buy primaluna.

My system is good for me, if I mentioned what I had and people ripped it, especially an audio salesman,  wouldn’t say a word, I would ask about specific amp, speakers, have the salesman move, unhook, hookup, any combination I could think of, then again, and so on.  Thank you and just walk out. 
  My speakers were ripped in here a bit, and other forum said they were firewood.  A bit insulted, but didn’t care, I like what I have, and their sound. 
 Putting down something is poor sales, 
    I’ve put things down, sure, but never a friends or family members system. 
   Shop elsewhere......

   We agree with quite a lot you wrote.
it’s a business.   I sold stereos for two years, and ours was commission to a % of the sale.    Being a salesman is not that easy, as it’s not so much making the sale, it’s being in the right place at the right time, most stereo/component buyers are already determined to buy when they get in their car and drive to a audio shoppe.

  In the audio only shoppe it’s a %85-90 purchase ratio, compared to the stereo shoppe I worked at in the early 90’s, which was located in a local large shopping mall, where dads, kids, and so on, are just wasting time browsing while waiting for their wife to finish shopping, not really interested in a pair of speakers, or anything component wise.  

  I get your point of view, and you have said a lot of good things, and honest things, much appreciated @upscaleaudio
