Has Anyone Uesed A PrimaLuna Amp With Harbeth Speaker's


Hi guys, I will be on the market soon for a new amp and I keep looking at the Primaluna Amps, has anyone heard the Primaluna Dialogue Premium amp driving a pair of Harbeth's 30.1 speakers? these are 87d/b and I am not sure how this will work out?

After reading what clarinetmonster2 was told from one current dealer and another former dealer,

(  I've now heard from one current dealer and another former dealer that say PL sound nice but the QC is not the greatest. One said he sells both Rogue and PL and the Rogue is built more consistently. They both said that there are a high number, relatively speaking, of PL warranty claims compared to others like Rogue.)

I decided to call my dealer to make an appointment to try out the PrimaLuna amps & pre amps, but  also to ask him about any problems that he has had, or knowns off, with the PrimaLuna product’s and of there QC.

I have been using this dealer for many years now and he does seem to known his product’s that he  sells, I trust in what he says, and he always seems to point you in the right direction. He said the same, that PrimaLuna are built as well as any and far better than most and that he wished all of his products that he kept, were as well made as the PrimaLuna.

I then called a 2nd dealer who sell’s PrimaLuna, I have never used them but they are well knoing here in the UK, and asked them the same question, they told me much the same as my own dealer did.    

Just buy it used and you can’t go wrong in my book. I got a prologue 3 preamp for $850 and prologue 5 amp for $900 both brand new, just by staying a mode behind the current line up. I do feel the quality control was much better so that’s worth it alone IMO. Even a dialogue 2 integrated would be my choice over the current dialogue “premium” integrated. 
I have owned and used a PL Dialogue Premium preamp for almost three years on a daily basis and have had nothing..(nil,nought,zero,zilch,zip) issues of any sort with this unit.
And the fact that I like rolling tubes a lot [eight total] has done zero harm to the integrity [bolted.. not soldered to a board] of the preamps tube sockets is a h-u-g-e bonus. Its a tank.

I can not give this product a better rating for its quality of build and sound across the board. The only thing that is missing from this pre.. to me at least.. would be a 'special edition' version of this unit that could maybe take it to the next higher musical level...if that is even at all possible... 8)
I left CJ ss  for PrimaLuna and never looked back.  Running PL Prologue Premium tube-rectified pre-amp w/Prologue Premium mono-amps EL-34s  to Compact 7ES-3s. 2yrs no desire to upgrade. 
   Just considering KT-77s for experiment. 
I am very glad to hear from owners that have had no issues. PL is still not my cup of tea, but I respect what they do. I honestly had no agenda and just thought it was odd and perhaps more than coincidence that the 2 dealers I spoke to both mentioned the same thing, but maybe not.
