PRIMA LUNA AMPLIFIERS


Hi 

I,m thinking of buying a Prima Luna amplifier but worried re reliability, and what you do in the UK if you have problems.

Would like to hear what owners think about reliability, tube changes , tube upgrades, potential problems,
And what happened if you had problems re after sales repair and support.



i,m going to use them with Proac D20 r floorstanders .

 Thanks in advance for your help

I just picked up a PrimaLuna HP amplifier off a fellow Audiogon member that has been sitting in my car for the last week while I’ve been traveling for work. Although, I have yet to listen to it in my own system, all the reading I have done on the Forums have been glowing which was what drew me into purchase. I’ll be rolling some KT-150s, KT-120s and EL34 winged C SED tubes, paired with a restored McIntosh C20 pre. Interested to hear how it preforms with a more modern amplifier. No reason to believe 
+1 here.  I had a Dialogue One for 4 years, and traded up to the Dialogue Premium HP.  I've had that for 2 years, and it's staying.  I've never had a failure of any kind, and the sound is amazing.  If I were to sell it, I'd be buying up the Primaluna line.  But, I doubt that will happen... it's great as is.
Hi Goldfish,
You may want to look on the market section of Audiogon and find a used unit in the eastern part of the US that would ship cheaper and below new cost. Given their reliability, it is a relatively safe bet. If the unit is still under warranty and it can transfer to a new owner, even better, but I don’t know company policy in that regard. Check Audiogon and US Audiomart. There is one in New York and one in Pennsylvania.
PRIMA LUNA AMPLIFIERS  Build like tanks, the sure will outlive you even if you will live forever . I own the prolouge primum and no hickups at all.

Don't know about UK service, even though I am a dual national.  Have PL pre & power amp.  After 3 years one rectifier tube in the pre lost it, I replaced both with Mullards.  3 years of enjoyable listening- rating 9/10
