Which integrated amp for better musicality - Parasound Hint vs Primaluna vs ???

I vote with Waltersayless. LM is musical!!
Have read very provocative statements about Lyndy
and the room correction equipment. Do more listening 
before buying. Enjoy the journey!!

I went to the Ascend Acoustics web site and found the specs. for the Sierra Towers.  Power wise, the PrimaLuna (both Premium and the Premium HP),Decware ZMA and LM 508ia are all good matches, with respect to the impedance curve, phase angle and speaker sensitivity. 

I also agree with waltersayless regarding the LM 805ia but I think its worthy to point out that the tubes used (805, 300B, 6SN7, and 6SL7) with this circuit can be limited and costly.  See watersayless AG discussion;  https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/line-magnetic-508ia-and-the-elusive-805-tube

It turns out that the stock tubes--even the 805--were not that expensive. I bought a replacement pair of 805s for about $90 each. I know some owners have replaced the 805 with much more expensive tubes, but I find that the stock tubes sound great!

The other tube types--300B, 6SN7, and 6LS7--are plentiful and vary greatly in cost, depending on what you are willing to spend to try different flavors. The stock tubes are really not that expensive. You have lots of choices for other types of tubes in these circuits. Only the 805 has limited options, in my opinion.

In short, this is the best tube amp I have ever owned. I am considering selling it only because I am currently trying a Lyngdorf 3400 and I am benefiting from the room correction and convenience. I just wish it had that wonderful SET magic that the LM 508ia has in spades.

Primaluna is extraordinary, I had the HP integrated and the Dialogue Premium integrated (4 power tubes) and love the smaller version. To me it is much more musical and the sound is just fabulous!
