Why is there no love for Prima Luna?


I have noticed fairly negative comments on Prima Luna in various discussions. Granted, I’ve never heard their gear but they seem to offer quite a value proposition. Point to point wiring, auto bias, protection circuits, easy tube rolling, good parts and build quality. I had considered looking into the Evo series integrated but the brand seems to be downplayed on this forum. Anyone have direct experience as to why?

Thanks for the link. Looking at the price of those caps, I'd have to think hard before taking the plunge. I have no doubt it takes the PL into the next league.f

i have looked at the decware online but have not heard it. Reasonably priced too! There is a lot of good tube gear out there now making it hard to decide which way to go. Many options to trial at home, but that still involves shipping costs and sometimes restocking fees. Still better than a blind purchase, but definitely want to narrow field before trying them out. First step though would be to decide on speakers I want and purchase them. Then I could compare them all the same. Still wavering on integrated VS separates. Then we have dac & streamer to figure out .,,,..
audiophiliac steve guttenberg just named the 2.3 wpc (that's two point three watts per channel) decware triode amp his 2020 product of the year, tells everyone don’t worry about power ratings, if you live in an apartment or don’t listen to music loud, just buy it you will be happy
