I have the PL Dialogue Premium and went to BAT separates. VK55 amp and VK31SE preamp with great results. Yes they are older but sound fantastic. With your budget I'm sure you can get better. Grannyring brings up a good suggestion also. I know another Audiogoner went this Lyngdorf route and is really happy with his choice.
Upgrading from Integrated Amp to Separates
I have a Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP integrated amp now, driving Harbeth M40.1's.
I like the sound, but am considering upgrading to something more powerful and with greater finesse.
I have had solid state gear in the past and have always come back to tubes, so I think I want to stay with tubes.
I would like to get a stereo amp (no monoblocks) and match it to a very nice preamp.
I have been considering Balanced Audio Technology gear but beyond that I really don't know.
For my budget, I would prefer not to go over $10K total for both components.
I am in no hurry to make this change, just thinking and doing research right now. I am willing to take more than a year to decide if necessary.
Please give me your suggestions.
Thanks!
Peter
