| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question @tablejockey awesome thanks for the link. I'll do some reading. I followed the basic guidelines in the focal manual but I'm always open to trying different. And I've heard the PL input tubes make the "biggest" sonic impact. What I may do is start ... | |
| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question @moofoo those Audio Mirror amps are beautiful! | |
| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question Pulled the trigger on 6 12au7's, which ill start with the driver tubes and then the flanking tubes. I also skipped over the KT88's and went with Tung Sol KT120's. Should have them early next week and excited to experiment and compare. | |
| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question And here is the setup. I would appreciate any and all feedback. The more I can learn the more I'd love to pass on. https://photos.app.goo.gl/XhLEwkzaxHqmj7Qc7 | |
| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question https://photos.app.goo.gl/uLsEz21iN238APXE9@stereo5 @tablejockey Am I operating too close to a wall? I figured 3 feet was appropriate for being 9 feet away from speakers. | |
| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question @tablejockey ahh my mistake. I put in a call to PS Audio and their thought was a P12 is an entry point for my Evo 400 due to power requirements for their newest series. After reviewing power requirements P5 and P10 should work as well. Also, you r... | |
| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question @stereo5 I'm not sure how much noise I have in my system to be honest. I know I should be investing in steady and cleaner power. We're renting so dedicated line isn't an option. I think the wiring in our house needs to be checked because with the ... | |
| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question @tablejockey so the p300 you have can handle the PrimaLuna? I was under the impression I would have to move up to the newer P12 (or older P10) to be able to handle the power requirements of my Evo400. | |
| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question @tablejockey do you have your PrimaLuna gear running through the PS Audio Power Plant? I've been curious as the entry level of running my Evo 400 through a conditioner such as PS Audio or Audioquest | |
| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question @newbee tubes are of interest too! Considering the GL KT88 and Mullard 12au7's. I guess I need to go back to the drawing board and maybe start with some tubes. Recently picked up the Linear Power Supply for my Musical Surroundings Nova III and cou... | |
| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question Brand new Focal Aria 936's. Pleased with them, but they're not the end all be all's. I guess I'm stuck attempting to decide whether to spend money on a preamp or to spend money on a used PS Audio P10. I guess I would just like to spend money. I sp... | |
| PrimaLuna Preamp Upgrade Question @tablejockey thanks for the advice. So we can say it will sound "different", but does that suffice to say I should? I would rather not make a lateral move if the lateral move doesn't help to provide any more benefit and I can just wait longer to p... | |
| What do/did you do for a living? @cleeds thanks for the direction. I should have known the search before I post. This 19 year old thread is awesome, thanks so much! | |
| How Long Did It Take You To Build Your Dream Setup? @mitch4t please tell us more. This is so awesome to hear. | |
| How Long Did It Take You To Build Your Dream Setup? @geoffkait How do you mean? My wallet looses every time I make a thought of a new purchase |
