“Produced intermittent extremely loud and sometimes just static but not as loud from either left of right speaker and not consistent. The Primaluna service was not really any help. The bursts of static were so loud at times I thought my speaker may have been damaged. I’ve owned a prologue premium that I purchased from upscale for over 8 years and it’s been great but I retired and wanted to reward myself with an integrated EVO 300 but it just wasn’t to be I guess. Service said it was probably a tube and when I figured out which one it was I could ship it back at my own expense and they would send a replacement tube. That was terrible customer service, I would have been down for at least a week on my 30 day demo. I was not pleased with my interaction with service so I returned the EVO 300.”

“Absolutely enchanting soundstage, texture, deeper bass and has more grip on my speakers than my 220 watt per channel peach tree nova ever did! I’ve wanted a Primaluna for years and with addition of the headphone amp I finally made the move and called and talked to Kat. She was very knowledgeable and sweet and answered any questions I had. I’m 47 years old and have been a lover of music and stereos my entire life, starting with the family Sansui system we had when I was a kid in the 70’s. The EVO 300 is the best sounding stereo and most fun I’ve ever had listening to music without the musicians being in the room with me! Highly recommended!”

“OK...this integrated amp is really impressive! I wanted something to drive my Klipsch Heresy IV's I bought a couple months ago. Had a very good Denon AV receiver but wife & I decided to ditch the home theater set up and do stereo only. Did a lot of research and decided to go with PrimaLuna and UpscaleAudio. I am no audiophile but I love listening to music and I want it to sound good! After talking on phone with Al decided to go with the EVO300. Hooked up this bad boy one snow stormy night, powered it up and...WOW! This amp drives my speakers to produce sound so full and rich. The amount/volume of sound is so satisfying at any volume level. The ability to select between Ultra-linear and Triode mode for your listening pleasure is a fantastic feature. It is amazing how a nice little integrated tube amp (uh...it is 68 pounds) can have you listening to all your stuff you have not listened to in a long time. The Audio Masters Speaker Setup disc I got with my order is really a great selection of music to hear wonderful sound and to help with speaker placement. This amp continues to impress every time we listen no matter the source. I highly recommend this quality made piece of equipment. Love this amp!”

“I purchased this integrated amp to power a pair of Klipsch Cornwall speakers, which were previously powered by a McIntosh MA6700. What a difference the PL made to my listening experience. This amp has complete control over my speakers, the soundstage is much more 3 dimensional, and the biggest improvement is with vocal music. The voices are more clear compared to the Mac. I didn’t expect such a large improvement in sound—pleasantly surprised.”

“For a second system in a small room, nothing can beat it in terms of sound quality, aesthetics, operation, and support. Tube goodness through and through.”

“Really enjoy. Full and warm. Provides plenty of power to drive my Martin Logans, as well as some older Elacs. I had no intention of getting a tube amp, but was convinced by Josh that I should, and glad I have. My wife is also happy with the sound and prefers to the solid state amps we have (Naim and Marantz). I like to move back and forth between the two, and glad I have both, but am leaning to the tubes.”
