Hi, kennesawjet,

I use a Prologue Premium preamp with a class D power amp and really enjoy the pairing. I would caution you, though, about the preamp's relatively high output impedance. At 2800 ohms output there are going to be some power amps with relatively low input impedances that may not work well with the Prologue Premium.

Regards,

Tom

I know ever piece of primaluna ive ever listened to sounded overly Gooey.  OP is asking about both cary and primaluna, both have totally different sounds.  I would go check out the Cary.

I went through lots of solid state options before buying my Primaluna Dialogue Premium.  Driving a pair of Spendor A6, not the most efficient loudspeakers but the combination is excellent.  I do occasionally consider trying something like VAC or CJ but am very, very happy with the Primaluna, almost three years now.
