Tube Integrated vs Tube Seperates


I’m looking into buying a tube setup.  Thinking it will be Primaluna because I find tube amps a bit intimidating and I will be putting lots of hours on it. Because these factors Primaluna seems like at least a good place to start for me. Thanks to all who gave me there impressions in my previous post about Primaluna.  Anyway, looking for people’s take on tube integrated vs tube seperates. Really what I’m looking for in the move is more holographic soundstage, bloom, air, and an over all more lifelike presentation. Will I get more of these qualities by going Dialogue preamp into Dialogue amp, or with the Dialogue HP integrated, or will it be very similar?  Any thoughts are much appreciated

Are you familiar with Raven Audio tube amplifiers?

I'll let myself out...😆

Speakers are Harbeth C7es3 xd. Room is 12x24 open on the back left half. I listen typically in the 80db range but at times peaks are well into the 90db range. 

octave is a company m don’t know much about, but I appreciate their look, and they seem well built. I will read up on them a bit more 

Line Magnetic I find fascinating but I worry they aren’t a great amp to run for as many hours as I’d be using them. I could be wrong though. 

I used Tubes for 50 years . There are no really  good ones made or used ,

2 small d's are it ,

He used tubes for 50 years then swapped to small class d amps, that's a silver with gold trim and really big FEET. It also says English is not his native language and actually he is a she.. She has a dog named Spot.

There you go a complete translation. :-)

BTW, I use everything.. I don't give a crap. I can make anything work.
