| Which Intergrated amp for starter?? PrimaLuna-Prologue II:40W via 2 pair of KT-88s.Great sound especially considering the price ($1345). | |

| info on Grado Signature arm The Grado Lab Signature was a dual S arm with hydraulic cueing.Hopefully the cueing is in good order and working.I believe that my friend Bob still has one-what do you need concerning its' operation?? | |
| Upgrading - Pls Suggest Speakers to Review Check out the Kharmas,Selah Audio produces line-arrays around the Fontec tweeters/Dayton aluminum Reference drivers.The Talon Raptor or Jena Labs Reference monitors,VSA 9/11/15. | |
| Tube Characteristics Down and dirty-34s are sweet thru the mids,top/bottom a little weak.6550-muscular but lacking in top-end delicacy.88s are my FAV-fairly full range-good performer all around.No experience with the 90s. | |
| Primaluna Two : cables, tube rolling ... I sell the Omega Mikro/Mapleshade cables and they work wonderfully with The PrimaLuna.Please contact me if you wpuld like assistance-Tom. | |
| Pass Labs X600.5 or a Pair of Classe Omicron's? The top-end on the 600s is more neutral to my ears.I've heard both and really liked the PASS.Any thoughts on going to a different pre?The digital pre/parametric EQ units would work well (Tact RDP-1/2). | |

| Best $1k Integrated Amp for Spendor S3/5's Prima Luna-I believe the EL34 model was up for sale at $925.Though I don't think you could go wrong dropping $1345 on the 40W/KT-88 model.No tube biasing. | |
