We recently received the following wonderful message from Michel about his newly acquired PrimaLuna EVO 400 Tube Integrated Amplifier — a great way to start the week.

We would like to sincerely thank Michel for his kind words and support!

Thank you, Herman!

For years, I have been listening with a Radford STA-15 from 1963 — and to be honest, I’ve rarely heard such a beautifully smooth, velvety tube sound elsewhere. Still, I had the urge to add a more “modern” tube amplifier to my system.

Over time, I’ve tried quite a few: Synthesis, Icon Audio, Line Magnetic, and I even started out with the very first PrimaLuna Prologue One. But as good as they were, with my high-efficiency speakers they often lacked that last bit of magic — the sound was just a bit too polite for my taste.

That changed when I came across the EVO 400i. I had read about it before, but it really clicked when I heard it playing at someone’s place where I had gone to pick up a set of PMS speakers via Marktplaats. The open, spacious sound was truly impressive.

Last Saturday, I purchased one myself — and since then, I’ve been listening almost non-stop. What an experience.

I have to say, I find myself completely captivated all day long, and indeed, as many reviews suggest, this is without a doubt one of the most beautifully musical integrated tube amplifiers on the market.

Kind regards,

Michel
