Primaluna Dialogue Premium valve integrated amp with upgrades
Superb amp, very well reviewed. Can swap between triode and ultra linear on the fly.
Their website says it all - please have look via the link. Reviews, spec etc in the link. Tubes from EL34 up to KT150’s acceptable - very versatile amp!

These are superbly made.
This one has a few tweaks:
1) IEC input is a Furutech Gold
2) While the NB coupling caps are already superb as stock being something of a special - Mundorf Evo Silver Gold (seems non-oil), the rest of the film caps in the signal path look like rebranded Muliticap capacitors. These have been all swapped out and upgraded to Mundorf ZN types improving transparency (4 of them - tin foil), and two of them Milflex pure copper film types.
3) Preamp tubes now JJ 802S tubes - thought they were better than the Primaluna branded 12AU7’s that come stock with the amp. All other tubes stock.
Low hours, maybe 150 or so.
Excellent condition - no marks at all. Remote control like new too.
Original box and manual in excellent condition as well.
Amp is superb in triode mode ��
Demo available. These are heavy at 29kg. So collection preferred but can post if wanted.
Grab a bargain over a new one - hard to find as being replaced with the Evolution model for more money.
Retail was £2999
This one £1575 or £1600 posted.
These were being cleared out in time for the Evo range at £2099 but seems all stock has disappeared.
