I have owned the Di Capo i's for about ten years .I find them to be a very honest and neutral sounding speaker that will let you hear what your upstream equipment sounds like , no colorations .Good bass and a seamless transition to the tweeter whi... 
Ayon's "Scorpio" tube imtegrated amp vs PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium tube integrated??.
I can not compare the two either .But I do own the Dialogue Premium Integrated and believe it to be a very good and reliable piece . I previously owned a Primaluna Prologue II integrated for ten years . It performed flawlessly the whole time . My ... 
record storage question
Get some cork matting with an adhesive backing or corrugated cardboard with double sided tape and stick it on the wall . It should provide enough of an insulating factor in a heated room . Either one can be painted to look nicer .Good luck 
Integrated tube amp has no bass Cayin A50T

Primaluna Prologue 4 tube upgrades
Djfst ;My experience with KT 120's showed a lack of midrange .Their strength was in the upper & lower ranges.Keep your 34's and try RCA clear top 12AU7's . Just use 4 in the two front positions on each side and keep the Primalunas in the rear ... 
"Pressing Vinyl"
Atmasphere ; I remember that , back in the day , CD's used to have different designations AAD , ADD & DDD denoting the analog and digital processing involved . This was printed on the back of the jacket . Is there some type of designation for ... 
Primaluna DiaLogue Premium preamp
I have found the 7316's to be the best of many different 12AU7 iterations that I have tried . I don't think that you will be disappointed with them .I have found that using only 2 on each side in the 2 front most sockets with a Primaluna 12AU7 in ... 
Primaluna Prologue 4 tube upgrades
Correction to my above post... instead of Amperex/Holland 12AU7's , I should have said 7316's . These are a direct replacement for the 12AU7's . Really a very nice tube .Too bad we can't do corrections to already posted threads here .

"Pressing Vinyl"
Lowrider57 ;"Of course it has to start with a good quality digital master. It may come from the original analogue tapes"An analog-to-digital conversion ? "(not quite the same as the vinyl we grew up with)."I agree . "It's never converted back to a... 
"Pressing Vinyl"
Query : Why do you want "New" recordings on vinyl ?If I am reading correctly , all of the new stuff is developed in the digital realm and then 'converted' to analog . This digitization & conversion affects the aspects that we love about the or... 
Primaluna DiaLogue Premium preamp
I will wholeheartedly second Tomcy6's recommendation of the Amperex 7316's . I have tried most all of the 12AU7 iterations (thanks Bigshutterbug) and found these to be the best throughout the frequency spectrum and musicality .When used with the S...
