Primaluna Dialogue One or Line Magnetic 218IA?


Hi,
I am trying to figure out which mid-level tube integrated to get. All things considered I can get these for about the same price.

I have heard the LM and like it, but I will have to order the Prima and then return with a restocking fee if I don't like it. BUT, it has gotten some tremendous reviews.

I would be using this with a Cambridge CD player and Vandersteen 2CeSig II's.

Any thoughts or advice? Thanks!

While I do like the idea of a home trial when you're gonna spend a few grand on something, if it were me I'd find it hard to send back the primaluna if I essentially invested a few hundred on a demo. I am satisfied with the LM 211, and have enjoyed listening to the dialogue at a local shop. Then again i've posted a thread wondering what exactly differentiates all these $1500-2000 chinese built el34 or kt88 integrates as I find them to be pretty close in sound to each other.
