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?

I'm a big fan, having the Premium and Dialogue HP, which is used with P3ESRs and Monitor Audio Golds respectively.  I also swap the Zu Dirty weekends and a vintage B&W, and it's great. 

They do seem to catch some shade on here, I'm not sure why.  

Otherwise, what up 513!

Cincy is pretty much closed up with the pandemic. I’m working from home and not going much of anywhere. At least it affords me time to research and dream about the new system I’m planning to get. Of course I’ve been in love with a different shiny toy every few days. Sooner or later I’m bound to nail down at least one component. Likely choose speakers first then work backwards toward the source.

For reasonably priced top end tube gear, check out Decware made in East Peoria, Illinois.

They make great speakers, also.

Same here In Columbus. I'm doing research on some sort of component daily.
