Rundown: PrimaLuna Tube Integrated Amps, Hybrid Amp, & Phono Preamp

[@CarlosPerez-eb5er]

I love my Evo 200! Over 1 year owner ship now.

[@brentcollins9727]

I heard some Prima Luna at a Houston store and was quite impressed.

[@Speccy48k]

I own a PL EVO 400i with KT150 valves and NOS tubes for the preamp stage and rectifiers. I always go back to Triode mode as it is the best combination to me: power/dynamic, details, presence and beautiful voices and instruments. You loose a bit of the overall sound stage but it is negligable if speakers are placed accordingly. Bass gives more body too in this mode. I added a REL S812 connected to the high-level input for best results. Ultralinear mode is best for Classical music though. Speakers are Sonus Fabus Maxima Amator and source is a Rega P10 with a Japanese MC cartridge Hana ML and a VIDA Prima phono preamp. Wonderful combination!!

so what is this in yellow short doing here?

[@metatron007]

Its a real shame that kev took down the video review on the Raven Audio Amp, it was CLASS......A.......

[@carminedesanto6746]

TUUUUUUBBBBBBBEEEEEESSSSSS😊

[@metatron007]

Is it the same weight as a Cayin......

[@ptg01]

My understanding it is made in the same Chinese factory !!!

[@mr.george7687]

What are the chances a tube amp can power Maggies?

[@saint6563]

Not great! Maggies demand a lot of current. Don't just go by watts.

[@JamesBrown-jy5sy]

Slim to none. Don't "sacrifice" just because it's a tube power amplifier.

[@boogermeister1]

Can I run a sub with the Evo 100 integrated amp?

[@raymoore8435]

Yes

[@ptg01]

PL is amazing and but for me , a bit pricier than I like.. plus I have a stronger preference for Made in USA.. I ended up with a USA made , SET Class A, self biasing tube amp running a whopping 8 watts tops ! Best decision ever. It even heats my listening room !

[@ListenUp]

Ha, ha. Tubes, they also heat your home. So many benefits. Thanks for watching.

[@carminedesanto6746]

I’m in Toronto..who’s carrying them up here ??

AM I MISSING SOMETHING HERE, I SMELL ....

[@masterazlan6999]

Prima luna is diff to prima vera.. Rite.. peace!

[@iampuzzleman282]

Why does prima Luna have such a negative reputation?

[@JamesBrown-jy5sy]

Because they're CHINESE JUNK!

[@tablesoup]

Because some people don't like that it's produced in China. They're extremely good though; listen to those who've actually heard them.

[@ptg01]

@@tablesoup Agreed... the Made in China was an issue for me. Good to have choices. If I were ok with Made in China, I probably would also give a very hard look at Cayin and Line Magnetic....

[@jfbaquero]

@@ptg01 Prima Luna is actually built by CAYIN.

[@metatron007]

I think I must be a woman, it all makes sense now....
