Belles Virtuoso or PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium HP

jtweed good point and another in favor of Primaluna as it's point to point wired and as a result both reliable and easy to fix. I think you're making a good choice and don't be scared of tubed gear being less reliable than SS that's just not the case. Good luck!

@jtweed - 

IMHO if you’re willing to pay 9k for the Belles I would seriously consider paying another 1k and buy the PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium Preamp and two PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium HP monoblock amps. Absolute killer sound that you will enjoy for a lifetime.

if you're going to spend that much on tubes why not look at some of the heavy hitters: line magnetic, mastersound,ayon, audio research

@jond , the PTP wiring is one of the selling points for me. My local HiFi shop also sells Rogue, and I’m not into it because of the PCB. If a guy wants to roll, the more you twist and turn, the higher the chance of cracking the board. I’ve also read that because of the auto bias(catch 22), you don’t get as much of the tube ‘flavour’ from tube to tube. But, it makes it very easy to own because of it.

@blues41, I’ve considered that option, I’m sure the SQ is very good, but the thought of adding 3 boxes, the HEAT it will produce, and the expense of rolling 20-25 tubes just isn’t realistic for me. I’m trying to not only increase SQ, but to simplify things. Decisions.

I think the transition/upgrade to PL from Adcom will be more obvious and more enjoyable than going to Belles. I've heard the lower model integrateds from each brand and the PL had a wow factor that Belles just didn't have.
