PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium
Hi,
First and foremost let me say I’m not trying to start any war of words, bash any manufacturers products or any HiFi dealers. I’m just stating my humble opinion. In the words of Denzel Washington in the movie Malcom X we’ve been hoodwinked and led astray when it comes to the whole audiophile phenomenom. I recently owned a ARC REF 5SE, REF 110 and ARC solid state DS450M mono-block amps. They were driving my Magnepan 20.7’s and my Meridian music streamer. I just switched all of it out for a PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium HP amplifier with KT150 tubes and a PL Dialogue Premium preamplifier and two these ears my Maggie’s have never sounded so good. I’m going to add another PL Dialogue Premium HP next week and then I can honestly say I am done with my search for high fidelity sound. People please don’t let other dealers and manufacturers tell you, you need to spend $$$$ to achieve musical nirvana it’s all hype. I fell for that crap and I’m really embarrassed to say it. PrimaLuna is a superior musical instrument that honestly should cost 4 to 5 times more for their Dialogue Premium line. The build and features are second to none. Please please don’t let these dealers tell you other wise. It’s all about the benjamins and they want you to invest your hard earned money in there over priced crap. I invite anyone to listen to my system and tell me this isn’t as good as it gets and that this is not how music should sound. I live in Seattle and I reached out to Upscale Audio’s Kevin Deal after 1 1/2 weeks of watching his videos and banging my head against the wall over my inferior lifeless musical experience. I took a leap of faith after reading several reviews and seriously doing some home work and made decision. Wow PL and KD thank you for not making me look like and absolute fool. I honestly feel like I stole from PL and Upscale Audio. Can’t stop tapping my feet and shaking my head. Bye for now and if one person listens to PRimaLuna after reading this thread my mission is complete. Peace, Miles and Dizzy are on stage with Stevie Ray riding shotgun!

bluesy41 OP audioman is saying he hasn’t read the specs on the primaluna. Glad you like the purchase. I got the Dialogue premium HP integrated last year and it sounds fantastic! |
I speak through Vast technical experience .all I am stating is you can get the Prima Lunato play on an even higher level .if you want to buy top quality parts ,which most companies doNotdo. Why do you think Modwright and other modding agencies have been so successful. On the comment on not reading the specs can be misleading,for there is no standard .This means little being around engineering there are tons of ways to make any piece of electronics look good at certain frequencies like 20hz -20 kHz,That being said the Prima Luna is pretty respectable in its price class. |
I don't know what audioman is saying either. I think he's saying it can always be better. Maybe, maybe not. But, I had a PL Dialogue One for four years, then moved up the link to the Dialogue Premium HP Integrated. It's great with the standard EL34 tubes, but it is a step better with KT150s. I rolled input tubes for a while. Eventually I went back to the factory input tubes and I was reminded that PL puts things together the right way. The factory input tubes are a great match for this amp. I'm happy with mine, two years now, and see no reason to ever get anything else. |
