Aesthetic Calypso or CJ Et3 or Primaluna Dialogue 3

I just saw a Ohhhhhhh boy!!!!!
cj 350 amp?
that is supposed to be "the 2nd coming" of perfect

How does the ACT sound compared to ET3-5?

Ps: I've given up on ripped CDs since Tidal Streaming
The quality of recordings is way, way better than ripped " crappy" cd's in my opinion
Ps: Meridian soundstaging from DAC is HUGE!!!

The PL has positive reviews.

The newer Dialogue Premium gets listed if you have patience, but they seem to go quickly.
I picked one up recently, with plans of transitioning from a PL Dialogue Premium HP Integrated, to PL HP monoblocks.

Regarding your specific match up-I can’t provide technical reasoning other than the PL probably won’t be a "wrong" choice,only your subjective approval.

If you’re not fussy about "Made in USA" credentials, the PL should be a consideration based on performance/value$

The PL is equal or maybe kills CJ on build quality.

Prima Luma for Web Jockey

Into a 10 K pass amp would be Foolish.

I would strongly suggest you stay out of the advice Giving department for a while.
  Glad your having fun mindlessly recommending though.

Accepted audio sonics often defy  electronics 101 rules in one way or another.

You plumb your components with specific cable and other seemingly ridiculous items don't you?

So just reply directly to the OP with your all knowing audio wisdom and save the condescending remarks for somewhere else-grow up.

Ive not heard the Calypso but have auditioned the other 2 in my system. If your a rocker then the single tube CJ would be my pick given only those 2 choices.
