The Ear magazine: Product of the Year 2014: The PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium HP Power Amplifier

Geplaatst op 06/01/2015 door beheerder

PrimaLuna-DiaLogue-Premium-HP-14We are happy and proud to annouce that our PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium HP Power amplifier is awarded as ”Product of the Year 2014” by The Ear magazine. Rene van Es has written a great review about the PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium HP Poweramplifier.

 

His conclusion:

PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium HP

The PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium H(igh) P(ower) power amplifier can be used in stereo or as a mono block, and with a range of tubes starting with the EL34 and moving up to the KT-150. I preferred it with KT-120 tubes which gave 175 Watts for each channel in mono configuration. That’s more than enough power to drive a demanding pair of PMC fact.12 loudspeakers to realistic levels. These amps are as reliable as any decent transistor type, and should a tube fail it will warn you which one is defective. Replace it and you are back in business without any harm done to the speakers. The sound of the PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium HP is not the warm sound often found with tube amps, neither is it the over detailed class D sound. It is fluid, natural, powerful, detailed and you can tune the sound using different tube brands and types. After extended use I was loathe to let them go back to the manufacturer, I rather enjoyed the limitless dynamics and power reserves they offered. Build quality has proven to be excellent with PrimaLuna, which means you will enjoy them for many years and still they won’t break the bank.

Enjoy The Music: The Best Gear of 2014: The PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium Preamplifier

Geplaatst op 05/01/2015 door beheerder

Best_Gear_Of_2014_smEnjoy The Music has published their 20 favorites reviews/products of the past year! In October 2014 Dick Olsher has written a great review about the PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium Preamplifier.

 

His conclusion:

” The Dialogue Premium line preamp strikes me as one of the best things PrimaLuna has ever done. In particular, purity of expression and tonal realism are two of its strongest sonic assets. The incremental improvements to the Dialogue Three have borne fruit. The Premium version is now able to swim with and compete effectively against high-end’s cost-no-object heavyweights. And that, my fellow audiophiles, is a rarity. If you’re looking for a basic line preamp that is sanely priced and offers genuine tube magic, this is it! An enthusiastic two thumbs up recommendation! ”

Exceptional Value award 2014 for The Kiseki Blue N.S. and Kiseki PurpleHeart N.S. Review by Jeff Dorgay of ToneAudio

Geplaatst op 30/12/2014 door beheerder

Kiseki BoxesIn issue No. 67  ” The Tone Favorites Issue” ToneAudio has published a raving review about the Kiseki Blue N.S. and Kiseki PurpleHeart N.S.

The review contains three pages about these little miracles! Jeff Dorgay of ToneAudio magazine was overwhelmed by the performance of the Kiseki Blue N.S. and PurpleHeart N.S.  He has given the Kiseki Blue N.S. and the Kiseki PurpleHeart N.S. an ”Exceptional Value Award 2014”

Some quotes are:

”People are fond of the saying “history repeats itself.” 

“The second I drop the stylus on the recent MoFi remaster of Tears for Fears’ Sowing the Seeds of Love, I know that the Kiseki cartridges have beaten Koetsu at their own game once again, and analog history is repeating itself. ”

”Considering what these cartridges offer, we are very happy to award them one of our Exceptional Value Awards for 2014. Now that’s a miracle we can all be excited about. ”

”If you’ve always wanted that special kind of sound that a Koetsu offers, the Kiseki is still a better choice for a more reasonable price.”

Jeff Dorgay: ”I know I want one.” 

We thank Jeff Dorgay and ToneAudio magazine for this great review and the exceptional Value awards! The Kiseki Blue N.S. and Kiseki PurpleHeart N.S. are WORLDWIDE available from local distributors or from Durob Audio direct.

PFO Writers’ Choice Award 2014 for The PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium Preamplifier!

Geplaatst op 29/12/2014 door beheerder

Prima_Luna_DiaLogue PFOPositive Feedback has published The 11th Annual Positive Feedback Writers’ Choice Awards for 2014 – The Best of the Best!

The PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium Preamplifier is awarded with a PFO Writers’ Choice Award,2014.

 

This is why!

”This tube-based heroic preamp outperforms its price and a large percentage of preamps of any kind that I’m aware of costing multiples of its modest price. When I received it to launch the review process I assumed that it might be a joyful partner for my McCormack DNA-125 platinum highly modified amplifier, but it was way better than merely cheerful with tube warmth. This giant killer has degrees of resolution that outflank most tube gear I’ve lived with, but its vivid strength is the sense of “you are there” immediacy that it creates. This is an absolute bargain in the audiophile universe”

In issue 74, Jim Merrod of Positive Feedback has written an great review about the PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium Preamplifier! He calls it THE REAL DEAL.

We thank Positive Feedback and Jim Merrod for this great review and awarding the preamplifier with the PFO Writers Choice Awards 2014!
