PrimaLuna's New Deal

CES 2010

By Erick Lichte • Posted: Jan 11, 2010

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 Prima Luna (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.

I just love their high value products!I love American made as well but, their products are universally praised - need to listen to some of their products!

The money he saves in belts and shoe shines get put back into the product.

Just maybe Mr. Deal could, and even would ... create some ads that are not foul, lewd, crude, and cheesier than a McDonalds double cheeseburger.Grow up, learn some manners, get some class, and advertise like a gentleman instead of merely a grown adult male.
