I own the PL Dialogue Two. Have had it for about 3 years. It is driving a pair of Coincident (Extreme version) speakers. After much tube rolling of the 12ax7s and 12au7s (with NOS) and trying different KT88s, I feel this is absolutely the best sound for the money I have ever heard. Sources include the Prima Luna CD Eight (w/upgraded board and a full compliment of NOS tubes) and a Monarchy Audio DAC used with a mac itunes. IC and speaker cables are Coincident and DH labs. Top to bottom extension,huge 3D soundstage, unexpected bass slam and a glorious" real" sounding mid range. Highs are beautiful as well. Initially, the Dialogue Two sounded bright and aggressive with the Coincident speakers. Rolling the 12ax7 and 12au7 changed the amp completely. Now extremely happy with the set up. This is a beautiful product. I highly recommend it but be prepared to spend some money on tubes.
Primaluna opinions wanted
Hello
Happy new year!
Is the Primaluna brand a giant killer in the tube realm,or the flavor of the day and over rated?
Are the buyers mostly new to tube (due to the self bias feature) and tickled with what they hear opposed to the SS they most likey had?
inquiring minds want to know!
Thanks for any comments.
