Craig, this isn’t hard. Just call PrimaLuna / Upscale Audio. They will help you.
PRIMA LUNA DIALOGUE PREMIUM - 20 minutes and then loud pop and buzzing in 1 channel
Hopefully someone can help.
Amp is virtually new. The amp will operate wonderfully for 20 minutes and then a loud pop , and then buzzing from the right channel. I shut down the amp and then it repeats. I switched some tubes and it is still there. I switched the cables and know for sure it is only one channel, the right one. The buzzing does not increase with the volume increased. .
It is the amp and not the Prima luna preamp. Cables and connections are fine. Pushing Focal Kanta No2's .
Any help would be very much appreciated. I'd rather not send a 68 pound piece of equipment through the mail.
Thanks lot - Craig

Did you flip the switch for the correct type of tube that you swapped out? Triode-Ultralinear. https://www.upscaleaudio.com/collections/primaluna/products/primaluna-dialogue-premium-hp-amplifier |
@mickeyb Sell it now. Seems everyone else is. You see how many are for sale?Yeah, check out the prices. If you find a good one it's only $1000-$1500 below list. Most used equipment goes for 50% or less. The Dialogue Premium series has been superseded by their new EVO series of balanced amps, I notice that many have just gone up for sale. I'd sell mine at $1000 off so I could buy the new ones. That's a good deal for me! Have you talked to the person who sold it to you? They may be of some help or stand behind their sale and assist in it's repair. Rollin |
