Pass Labs INT 60 VS. Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP VS. Arcam A49

Tying to decide between the Pass Labs INT 60 integrated amp and the Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP integrated tube amp. I currently have the Arcam A49 which is excellent but looking for something with even more detail. All three have many excellent reviews, looking for input to make a decision. I have Wilson Audio Sasha 1 speakers, an Arcam D33 DAC, Rega Apollo-R CD, Clearaudio Performance DC turntable with a Manley Chinook phono stage.

I love my primaluna. It replaced a YBA Designs integrated but the PL put it to shame. I agree you will have a hard time ending your listening session. My PL with EL34 tubes is nirvana.

I have PL Dialogue HP Int and recently picked up Pass INT150 also.
Both sound wonderful. Am using the KT150 tubes because they power the Revel F206s better. With Mullard CV4003s also. Forced to choose, I suppose I prefer the musicality of the PrimaLuna setup. YMMV.

I used Pass Labs Xa30.5 and now have Xa100.8 with my Sasha 1. I prefer SS with these speakers. You will be happy with the Pass Int 150.

Pass integrated your best option with your speakers. Heard Wilson's with low power class A tube amp, sounded very good but lacked necessary power. Pass excellent amp and will outperform Arcam significantly. Best wishes.
