Has Anyone Uesed A PrimaLuna Amp With Harbeth Speaker's
I left CJ ss  for PrimaLuna and never looked back.  Running PL Prologue Premium tube-rectified pre-amp w/Prologue Premium mono-amps EL-34s  to Compact 7ES-3s. 2yrs no desire to upgrade.    Just considering KT-77s for experiment.  
Should I buy a new cd player or DAC or both or neither?
2nd the Cambridge CXC. I found big improvement matched with new Wyred4Sound Dac1v2.  
Tidal subscription discounts
To get vet discount - I just had to e-mail pic of DD-214. Thx again Tidal. 
Looking for a new dac-need opinions from the community
Lovin’ my Wyred4Sound DAC1v2 at ~50 hrs. Haven’t heard DAC 2v2 -probably great. 
I Find Primalunas Ugly. How about You? Is there an alternative?
The PL tube cages turned me off for years until I saw one real . I bought a demo Prologue Premium integrated then upgraded to Prologue Premium pre-amp and Prologue Premium mono-amps. Very happy

Choices narrowed Rogue RP-1 and Primaluna Prologue Premium Preamps
I went with Prologue Premium pre-amp and Prologue Premium mono-amps from local dealer after first try from Upscale Audio. Well worth the wait. Tube- rectified was attractive feature.

Cambridge CXC  w/Wyred4Sound DAC1v2 . 
Wyred4Sound DACII VS. Wadia Di 122 Which DAC? Help!
Haven’t heard Wadia . I’m thrilled with my Wyred4Sound DAC1v2 with femto clock upgrade . Huge improvement over dac in LUMIN D1 streamer . 
Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what?
2nd the Harbeths . Completely satisfied 1 yr now with Compact 7ES-3s . Still love the traditional look. I had Fortes in the late 80s- good looking but harsh sound with state of CD/digital back then. 
Best Tube/SS Amps for Harbeth 7ES-3
A little over your budget. I upgraded to PrimaLuna Prologue Premium pre-amp and Prologue Premium mono amps  . 70W/ch EL-34 tubes. With 7ES-3s getting plenty dynamics, bass, tube glory without the ripeness that can blur resolution and transient att... 
Choosing tube power amp
Couldn't be happier with my PL Prologue Premium mono-blocks. EL-34 based .  
Too many tube amps
I left $10k worth of CJ gear for $6.5k worth of PL - not missing CJ at all.  Totally content with Prologue Premium pre-amp +mono-blocks running EL-34s into Harbeth compacts 7ES-3s. still playing with 8 vs 4 ohm taps. The CJ ET3se was a PITA ime. T... 
Primaluna Integrated with a seperate preamp
Yes . I used a Prologue Premium pre-amp into a Prologue Premium integrated while saving for Prologue Premium mono-blocks.  
Owners of a Conrad-Johnson MF-2550se Power Amp - Please post your thoughts
Generally a tuber for the more euphonic kind of distortion. PL's been a better bargain.
