Ayon's "Scorpio" tube imtegrated amp vs PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium tube integrated??.
I have to agree. I know the equipment is pricey, however, their ads and advertising methods look like they are targeting the "all you can eat, lottery, casino boat" crowd. Maybe throw in some smokes if they order within the next 30 minutes :)

Yes. The dealers do mean a lot. Especially, for non big box retail items. I'll probably contact UA this week and decide on the amp that is for me.

Something to consider 
Buy Smart Japan
I love Japanese made products. Cars, instruments, etc. Unfortunately, just like the US, Japan has outsourced a number of things to China, Indonesia, etc. Domestic Japanese items can be quite pricy. I have  fender Japan Stratocaster (with US pickup... 
Absolute Sound - do we really need another review like this?
I always enjoyed Stereo Review back in the 70s and early 80s. Mainly, much of the gear was affordable for me. The masses now want iPod type system and/ or home theatre.

Zu is fantastic!!!

I saw this older thread. I am thinking of a Primaluna integrated myself. I’m also seeing some new Ayon Scorpios offered here on ag by their us distributer USA Tube Audio for $3500 or so ( the scorpios are not 60 watts per channel like listing says... 
Has anyone compared K150 tubes and the stock EL34s in Primaluna integrated/amplifiers?
Question. Any tube sets (kt88,el34,etc) that are better for low volume listening? Probably 30% of my listening is at low volume. I currently have a Pioneer EQ that I switch on ( true bypass switch) for low volume that fills in the low end. I plan ... 
Has anyone compared K150 tubes and the stock EL34s in Primaluna integrated/amplifiers?
I'm thinking of a Primaluna. How much of a sonic difference between KT88 and EL 34's? 
I've decided to try Tubes
I actually wrote Sean a while back. He stated, unlike the Soul's, the Omen Defs are good with pretty much anything you throw at it SS or tube. I was using a Pioneer Elite AV receiver when I first got the Defs ( I had 5.1 at one point at the house ... 
I've decided to try Tubes
Thanks for info. I checked out the Mini Mites a few years back. Too bad they are discontinued. My budget is approx $1300. I looked at Jolida and their quality control seems to have issues from what I see on many forums. Rouge is a little out of my... 
Mytek Brooklyn+microRendu -or- PS Audio DS Junior?
Bob, have you compared the RCA outs of the Node2 to your Dac. I’d be curious how big of a difference the internal BS Dac performs to an external one. 
And B&K owners here?
Thanks for info. I thought about the Musical Concepts mod, BUT, I'm still thinking new amp. The new Yamahas really look appealing to me. I can catch a refurbished SR2100 for about $2500 on Assesories4less. It's just waiting for one to pop up. The ... 
High End Amp Price Collapse musings
I'd be curious if McIntosh, accuphase,etc produced a Class D amp how it would compare to their normal line
