PrimaLuna has turned its attention to CD Players – with the valve amp specialist bringing its retro tech approach to the still-popular spinning disc format.
PrimaLuna’s ProLogue Eight ‘harnesses the company’s expertise in valve-equipped audio design’, explaining that the incorporation of the company's valve-driven ‘Super Tube Clock’ makes all the difference.
The Super Tube Clock apparently incorporates a low-noise mini-triode valve into the digital clock which cuts down on jitter.
Dual-valve rectification
The ProLogue Eight also harnesses dual valve rectification, PrimaLuna’s multi-award-winning power supply adapted from its ProLogue Three preamp.
Of course, for many people the design will be the key, and in the words of PrimaLuna:
“Glowing glass valves protrude intriguingly from hand-rubbed, high-gloss black metalwork, coupled to a thick aluminium faceplate available in either silver or black.”
And the price? A snip at £1,590.
