PrimaLuna EVO 100 Integrated and Headphone Amp w/ Primaluna USA's Kevin Deal

[@jimfarrell4635]

Passionate video. A master salesman at work. Partly as a result of a previous vid I recently picked up a second hand Prologue 2 and I agree entirely with your comments re power. Certainly my Zingali floorstanding speakers are relatively easy to drive but my other amp is a 90lb 150w per channel DK design hybrid and in terms of loudness and dynamics the Primaluna is easily it's match. I never feel it lacks punch or power. Fantastic valve amp. Built like a tank. Very pleased with my purchase. Thanks !

Good work Kevin. I learned a lot from your video. Thanks!

"Very few manufacturers use toroidal transformers"? What?? I can't think of a well-respected HiFi electronics company that DOESN'T use them! Marantz, Rotel, Musical Fidelity, Naim, Rega, Hegel, Vincent, Cambridge Audio, Yamaha even, the list goes on.

My front teeth - or a Primaluna ? What Kevin says is true. I love how they sound .

I currently own the PrimaLuna DiaLogue Two. I thinking about upgrading. I learned that the EVO 100 is the 3rd generation of my unit. IDK for an extra $1,000. if it's worth it. The EVO 200, is $1,600. more than my used unit. I am confident that the EVO 200 will be a better overall performer than my current model. But I'm wondering if the new EVO 100 will provide an 'appreciable difference in sound performance' Both the new EVO 100 & 200 come with an amazing headphone amp which my current model doesn't have. Any thoughts regarding the costs of these products vs Performance? Thanks!

Is there a substantial difference between the Evo 100 and the classic for 1700? I see a headphone jack which doesn't interest me and isn't worth 500 more. Curious if there are significant audio improvements else I think the classic is a better fit for me.

I don’t know if the headphone part is same in the evo lineup for sound as well as power output? I’m considering replacing my Audiovalve Solaris with PrimaLuma for my susvara, but I’m not sure primaluna has enough power for my Hifiman Susvara due to the lack of specs in the headphone section of PrimaLuna.

Will this amp drive magnepan .7's well?

How do you compare this Prima Luna Evo 100 Integrated amplifier to Cary SLI-100 Integrated amplifier? Thanks. www.caryaudio.com/products/sli-100/
