Tube amps under $7500
Ready to experiment with combinations never before (or not recently) tried. Step one requires a tube amp. Now looking at Prima Luna EVO 400 which sells for 5K. Any other tube amps I should consider in this price/feature range? Must come in silver with balanced input. For pairing experimentally with various tube and SS preamps. Efficient 4 ohm Legacy speakers (and the room/setup) are the constants.
Are you in the U.S.? If so, I'm not sure where you're getting those prices. At Upscale Audio — the natural place to buy PrimaLuna because Upscale's Kevin Deal is the brand's U.S. importer — the EVO 400 is on sale for $4,995. That's with 8 EL34s. With a set of KT150s, the price is $5,715. |
@passthedutchie Thanks for correction. I was comparing the $5,715 "sale price" at Upscale against what is apparently their "regular" price of $6,178 with KT150s. You are correct that the price with EL34s is $4,995. And of course I agree that if one is going to buy PL, one should do it at Upscale. |
