    This is the Prima Luna Dialogue Premium HP integrated at £3398.

    With EL34 as fitted, it is good for 70 wpc into 8 ohms. You can fit all manner of output valves such as KT66, KT88, KT120, KT150 etc for a different presentation and greater output.

    Excellent. Truly versatile amp, then. A number of different amps in one, in reality, should one be prepared to invest in various possible valve configurations. Sonically more changeable than most valve power amps.

    I had one on loan last Xmas for a few weeks, cracking amp, liked it so much I bought the power amp version after borrowing the pre/power combo a few days later.

    Still looking to buy the matching pre but the shop are still asking too much for it.

    The headphone section in the integrated is supposed to be excellent, never tried it myself.

    I had all 3 amps here for about 8-10 weeks due to the Xmas holidays and even my wife said just to buy whichever one I liked ( she loved the sound from them as well). So I thought might as well go pre power as it was better than the integrated, but I must admit if I'd only heard the integrated then I would have bought that.

    Here's a photo of them when they were here, as well as the review from HiFi World.

    My back took some punishment with those I can tell you.

    Dave, hope you don't mind me posting this.

    Mike.



    Here is a link to a PDF of the review.

    The new Planar 8 uses a lot of the top of the range Naid design features.

    I imagine a market for a none contact surround for the new p8, that foam edge isnt high art.
