Silent background - like a solid state amp. Accurate, not necessarily lean, but after several hours of break-in the sound gets sweeter. Really sweet. I had not considered buying a tube amp before, but I love the PrimaLuna.

I knew I wanted a tube-based system and with all of the positive reviews on forums and publications, I decided I'd start with PrimaLuna. This is for my home office so didn't need anything too crazy. First impressions when I opened the box...looks way better in person than in videos/pics (BTW, I'm pretty sure it's brand new). Build quality is superb. I have them hooked up to Falcon LS3/5As and I don't know how to properly describe the sound but it is magical. Detailed and warm at the same time, holographic, amazing soundstage and imaging...wow. I want to try tube-rolling the stock tubes, but can't imagine how it's going to sound better?

I really love it. Great sound, great build quality, beautiful to look at and simple component integration. It sings with my Wharfedale Linton speakers either through NODE 2i or turntable.

I had been listening to a Fisher 500c with my Klipsch Heresy II's and actually thought I had the sweet sound I was after for almost 50 years. I only listened to my system about 5 or 6 hours a week, since the Fisher was an antique, so it was NEVER on purely for background sound. Long story short; I heard about Primaluna from a friend and then got more information from Evan at Upscale. I decided to try the EVO 100 integrated amp for 60 days. After 4 days of listening nearly non stop(background sound included!), I decided the Fisher will never be connected back to my Heresys again!!!! Thank you Upscale!!!
