| Where to Buy Primaluna Phono Board I am so sorry for the delay in the phono boards. Anyone who knows the PrimaLuna bigwig Herman van den Dungen, and the exacting standards of the Dutch people, know that things have to be perfect or they won't make it. There is a part used in produc... | |
| Anyone try KT 120 Tubes in Primaluna Dialogue? Davide256 - Using Valvo 6201's (which are a 12AT7) make no sense because all the small signal tubes are 12AU7 in the PL Prem models. In fact, no PrimaLuna product of any model uses 12AT7/6201.On the KT120 question, they have a little more "snap" t... | |
| Kevin gets the Wow....what a thread...here's a response kiddos.1. TAS and Stereophile are hardly going to try to print the same review of the same product. They are competitors. Dick Olsher saw the DiaLogue Premium at CES, liked the sound, and asked to review it... | |
| Best vintage Sansui integrated In 1975, my best friend had a Sansui 1000a 50 wpc tube receiver. My other friend Sansui "super receiver" 9090DB with 125wpc solid state.We didn't know why, but all of us knew that the tubed receiver sounded better. Years later, here we are selling... | |
| upscale audio is this legal? It's easy to hide behind the name Tiger52 and do this kind of crap with no downside. I called the customer and offered, if available, a V12i with a dented transformer cover which he paid for. I think he sees that the mint unit he bought (and you s... | |
| what would you do? This guy posted the same thread to several forums. Shame on him. As the owner of Upscale Audio, I spoke to this fellow yesterday. Let me make a few points:A: He bought it over a year and a half ago. He needed to contact us in a reasonable time. B:... | |

| PrimaLuna ProLogue Two - mixing tubes? I never said it will sound nice. While using different tube types at the same time CAN be done in a PrimaLuna... that's not the same thing as sying it SHOULD be done. While you may blend the color of each tube, the slightly different operating par... | |
| PrimaLuna ProLogue Two - mixing tubes? @Coltrane1, While PrimaLuna amps may not be directly designed to use several power tube types at the same time, the ability to do so is a pleasant side effect of our Adaptive AutoBias circuity. We've actually run 4 different power tubes at the sam... | |
| Cary, Cayin or Primaluna EL34 for Merlin VSM-MME @Buconero117: The current Cayin amplifiers have nothing in common with PrimaLuna, other than both being built in China. PrimaLunas have different chassis designs, different circuits, different transformers, different parts, different quality contr... | |
| Buy tubes from Audio Research or not I wasn't being rude. I was being direct. I guess that can come off as rude to someone that won't take no for an answer. You asked my assistant 3 times to sell you tubes. He told you 3 times we do not re-tube the VT100 anymore. It's been that way f... | |
| PrimaLuna Prologue 8 CD Player Sound As the North American distributor of PrimaLuna, I feel I must chime in on this thread and would like to answer everybodys question by name...Blazen69: You can make the sound of the PL8 go in any direction you like by swapping tubes, as well as on... | |
| Primaluna Dialogue Two + Wilson Sophia I Yes....tube amps do color..and that is why especially right now in hi-end tubes are thriving.If it wasn't for wanting color.....everyone would drive a Honda Accord or Toyota Camry and marry a Stepford Wife. But I don't want that. I want color. Hum... | |
| Primaluna Prologue One power tube rolling Also try the winged C 6550C and EL-34 in the PrimaLuna one and two..or any of the amps. Note: We didn't use them here....we leave stuff stock. This is from customer feedback | |
| Difference: Cary SLI80 Signature vs non-signature? Jdec - The hexfreds have a completely different job. The rectification stage in an amp's power supply helps to regulate the voltage going into the amp. The Hexfreds are upgraded diodes (which every amp has). These diodes essentially keep the signa... |
