Why is there no love for Prima Luna?

I have noticed fairly negative comments on Prima Luna in various discussions. Granted, I’ve never heard their gear but they seem to offer quite a value proposition. Point to point wiring, auto bias, protection circuits, easy tube rolling, good parts and build quality. I had considered looking into the Evo series integrated but the brand seems to be downplayed on this forum. Anyone have direct experience as to why?

I think primaluna may sound great but to me it looks too ugly that’s my only concern

Has anyone tried the Primaluna Evo with the B&W 805D3? Would it be a good match in a small 18sqm/1500cuft sealed bedroom?

I had a Prima Luna Evo 100 mated to Focal Aria 906 stand mounts driven by a Cambridge Audio CXA80 integrated amp and streaming Qobuz through a CA CXN V2 and in my small 14' x 12' room sounded absolutely great, to my ears. Try to find a used PL integrated amp on the used market. They are few and far between. That should tell you something. People who buy them tend to keep them.

No fan of the CCP and I'm sure all of you out there with your iPhones aren't either.
That being said, I use Primaluna Dialogue Premium separates.
I've haven't had one hiccup since I've owned them. Yes they're built like a tank. Have a look on Google and see the insides of there products.
As far as speakers, I only have higher sensitivity speakers, but they sure do make Tekton Double Impacts and Klipsch Forte II's sing.

oldhvymec is right. Its politically incorrect to say it. If we don’t stop the steal then soon it will be illegal to say it.
