Primaluna? @philgo01 may is ask which Rogers amp you ended up buying? I recently heard a 65-v2 and it was amazing. I’m going to borrow it and listen to it in my system tomorrow. | |
Tube integrated amps -- new Value Leaders? @bob7296 why are you pasting the same message in every discussion? While I agree with your assessment, it just gives the impression that you got a chip on your shoulder. | |
Rogers High Fidelity Integrated amplifiers I finally had a chance to listen to Rogers High Fidelity 65-v2 at a friend’s place last night. To say that I was impressed would be an understatement. I can’t believe how good this amp sounds -- details galore, powerful but still keeps the nuances... | |
Raven Audio Tube amps @bob7296 thanks for sharing your impressions. My experience with the Blackhawk is almost exactly the same as yours. Nice little amp but significantly overpriced for what you can get in today’s market. Looks and feels cheaper than what the price wo... | |
Primare I35 vs Naim Supernait 3 @celestial__sound I will take @jjss49’s opinion over any reviewer any day of the week and twice a day on Sunday. | |
Integrated amp suggestion for Sonus Faber Olympica 2 @wlowe I ended up buying a Luxman 590AXII to pair with the Olympica 2s. This pairing is fantastic - Luxman had no trouble driving the Olympicas. I was surprised how much more and better high end extension as well as bass was available from the spe... | |
Primaluna? +1 @mozartfan Agree lets get back to PM. LOok every major manufacturer from china, Cayin, Doge, LM, Willenston, Yaqin, many others offer a PP KT amp for less than PL’s offerings. You can get a KT88 amplifier just under $1400 from any of these b... | |
Primaluna? Dealers participating 'passionately' in these forums is a double-edged sword. They may win some fans/customers, but also run the risk of alienating an equal number of people. Just sayin' ... | |
Suggest your most desired MSRP $1,500-$3,000 Stand Mount for a Shootout. The MSRP for Harbeth P3esr used to be around 2.5k but I checked the prices for the latest XD version and it now sits at $3290. I really like this speaker but I must admit it’s getting difficult to justify the price tag anymore. It’s a good little ... | |

Wilson Benesch-Great or just Okay? @chorus I know that ProAc has a ton of fans, and for good reason. But in my system, I found them to be a bit bright and thin in the midrange area. They do have a more lively sound that probably benefits genres of music like rock, metal, and EDM. F... | |
Tube integrated amps -- new Value Leaders? @danager Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think TubeHifi offers an integrated amps. But you're right, they seem to be a very good deal compared to the other brands I mentioned in this thread. | |
Tube integrated amps -- new Value Leaders? @alan60 Your prime driver seems to be just getting a perceived bargain, so you can say to yourself this sounds good and it only cost me X. I don't see how you can dispel Line Magnetic just because it is 'slightly older' brand they make fantasti... | |
Tube integrated amps -- new Value Leaders? @jerryg123 Thanks. It's amazing how much the SQ from these cheaper brands is getting close to the more expensive ones. I looked at PP20, sounds like a really good deal. Between this and Wilsenton and other similar brands, it's the first time peopl... | |
Tube integrated amps -- new Value Leaders? @jerryg123 Since you also own Raven products (I'm assuming Blackhawk?), how would you compare it to Icon Audio (not sure which model you have). |
