Show Report CES – Stereophile Magazine

PrimaLuna’s News Deal


One of my favorite sounds of the show came out of the PrimaLuna room. Their sound was full of dynamics, texture, body and balance. Kevin Deal of PrimaLuna (seen here like a proud Papa) was one of the few people at CES who made sure that folks visiting his room got the right mix of information, listening time, and fun. At least that was the vibe when I visited. At Kevin’s feet are the DiaLogue Seven monoblocks ($5499 per pair), which Art Dudley wrote about in the December 2009 issue of Stereophile.

New in PrimaLuna’s line and playing in their fine-sounding system was the dual-mono DiaLogue Three preamplifier ($2499), which uses four 12AU7 tubes.

Discover a rave review of Stereo Prestige & Image (France) on the DiaLogue Three and DiaLogue Six

Un véritable tour de force que cet ensemble à tubes PrimaLuna, préampli Dialogue Three et blocs monoDialogue Six, propose à ce prix.

En effet, cet ensemble à tubes est d’une parfaite constance sur tous les genres musicaux avec une aisance dans l’ampleur sonore sans égale, une mise en place de la scène sonore et de son acoustique qui forcent le respect. De plus, le cheminement mélodique apparaît couler totalement de source avec la fluidité d’une mécanique bien huilée, au “couple” prodigieux, avec une puissance d’une disponibilité instantanée.

Courrez vite écouter ces électroniques qui révèlent la vraie densité de l’émotion de la musique, vous constaterez pourquoi notre enthousiasme n’est pas feint.
