Primaluna EVO 100 Tube DAC has anyone heard it??


As part of the new EVO series Primaluna has come out w/an all tube DAC. Cost is $2999 and it weighs around 29 lbs. It also has a tube based clock. Never heard of that type of clock. Can someone explain what that is. The DAC itself is based on a Burr-Brown chip set.

I find one of the selling points strange. Primaluna claims their DAC weigh's 29 lbs. compared to most DAC's that weigh less than 10 lbs. IMHO I don't think you can correlate quality w/weight in a DAC. My RME ADI-2 DAC weighs in about 2-3 lbs. Does that mean it sucks??
Unboxed mine about two hours ago, and straight out of the box, it is M U C H better than the Lampizator Amber 2 it is replacing which is no slouch!

Very musical, with a wide soundstage! Deep tight bass, instruments and vocals are really precise!!! Really looking forward to the next couple hundred hours of break in.

I'm very happy!!!!
