Dennis Had's second string components would be a much fairer comparison for the PrimaLuna line(they are built in china as well): (http://www.upscaleaudio.com/view_category.asp?cat=29)
Comparing Integrateds by Primaluna and Cary
Ok, Primaluna has developed quite an interesting and promising line of integrateds. A Primaluna buyer might well go with Cary as an alternative. Have any of you compared the SOUND of any subset of the following models:
Prologue 1 and 2
Dialogue 1 and 2
Mystere 1 and 2
Cary SLI-80: Signature, F1 with and without direct coupling
Cary SEI-300
Ok that last one is a ringer as it's an SET, but still what are the tradeoffs? And not all of these let you choose triode mode - implications?
No need to limit the comparisons to this group if you have a "hot number" that you want to alert us to, or warn us about!
Fun.
