PRIMA LUNA AMPLIFIERS

Are MULLARD NOS EL34s and LTA ZOTL40 REF worth the price of admission?
I agree with edi retro.I bought a octet of NOS Mullard EL34 XF2s from Andy at Vintage Tube Services and I couldn't be happier. He is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to tubes and is glad to share his experience.
