Primaluna ProLogue Five VS. Classe CA-150


I've been using my Classe CA-150 for awhile now and like it quite a bit but I've always thought tube amps were cool, do you think I'd be happier with the ProLogue 5?

I have a small pair of bookshelf speakers which aren't exactly efficient, and I do listen to electronic music quite a bit. I'd be okay with giving up a little bit of overall volume for more quality.

I would like to change things up and go for more warmth, bloom, romance if you will, but I don't want to be disappointed if I make the switch and find that I can't turn it up very loud and the bass becomes bloated or sloppy...

What do you guys think??

A 36 wpc amp with KT88 Output Tubes, bet it sounds nice but we're flying blind without knowing the speaker and it's specs.
Sorry guys for not giving more info...

Pre amp is a lightspeed attenuator

Speakers are some Jamo D830 In wall speakers installed in a sealed box. They aren't very efficient.

I don't mind giving up some volume if I can gain warmth, bloom etc.

I'm pretty happy with my current set-up, I just want more body, kinda like a thick creamy cappacino but I don't want to lose my tight bass or midrange inner detail and I'd like to gain some sparkle and high end extension... Maybe too much to ask for with my ineffecient speakers and the Primaluna Prologue 5?
LOL! Man B_limo, you want it all!! More warmth and bloom, AND more sparkle and high end extension too??? Good luck brother!! Great taste AND less filling, yeah right. Don't believe the hype, you'll only set yourself up for disappointment.

IMHO, the Classe CA-150 is waaaay more amp then you need for those speakers. I wouldn't bother changing amps unless you plan on changing speakers too.
Wolf, there are things I like about tube amps. For instance, ghe sound, the ability to change the sound with different tubes, the tubes glowing, the cool factor... I'd have to agree, they seem to be more fun.

Jmc, I know, brother, I kind of do want it all, you're right...
Look up the Jamo D830 Concertos; those are pretty much my speakers; I don't think my Classe CA-150 is overkill at all (and overkill is always good for me :-)

I do understand though that a more efficent speaker would be better ( if only I had the $, I'd probably get those Tekton Cats Meow here on A-Gon ($700)-no affiliation.

Anywho, speakers seem to be what I change quite a bit. 11 pairs in 2 years, so maybe I could get some tektons or zu's or omegas or...?

Another thing I was thinking is I can ask the seller if he'd let me demo it for the weekend before choosing...
