I forgot to mention, above, about my Prima Luna experience. I was very interested in a new PL Evo 400 amp. Kevin told me that he didn't think it was a good match for my very inefficient speakers. Hmm, even though I was interested in PL Kevin advised otherwise. Now that is contrary to much of what is cited above. However, he did say that if I wanted to try the amp with my speakers, that I could. I gave him a deposit in the amount we agreed upon and took home the floor sample unit. Kevin was right, it did not do well with my speakers. The mids and highs sounded great, but there was not much in the way of bass slam. When I took back the amp we discussed a solid state amp from Balanced Audio Technology as the best choice for the sound quality I was seeking along with very solid driving capabilities for my speakers. Kevin gave me a killer price on a new, factory sealed unit. It worked fantastic with those speakers. Since then I sold those speakers and now I have new speakers that are much more efficient. I spoke with Kevin and he worked another killer price for me on a Balanced Audio Technology tube amp.
