I have the Prologue 2 and have had zero problems with it in almost two years .
I can't compare it to a great many other pieces but what I have heard does not better it by much if at all . With different tubes , I would/have , put it up against Cayin and Cary pieces of the same circuit topology ie. PP integrateds using the Kt88 , El34 etc. tube family. It is a bit of a cameleon , as you can obtain many different sounds with numerous tube combinations .
Is it the best ? That is subjective . Is it a good value ? I think so . If you don't like it , you can turn it over rather easily .
I would say go for it .
Good luck .
