Primaluna?

I’m thinking about giving a full tube setup a go and Primaluna in particular.  Looking to hear people’s experiences with Primaluna in general. My main draw to them outside of tubes is there auto bias and protective features.  Wondering if people generally replace a single bad tube or if people are replacing all tubes of that type when there’s a failure.  Also would be interested if there were any other companies with at least a similar protective feature. The auto bias sounds great but the protective features are a bigger deal to me.

It's curious to me when someone proclaims that item "A" is far better than item "B" without clarifying what exactly is better. We just get a blanket statement instead. Is it based on build quality, aesthetics, performance, smell? What? If you directly compared item "A" to item "B" and you prefer one over the other, then say as much.
