The PrimaLuna is not a wallflower when it comes to some rather impressive dynamics for a tube amp either. In Ultra-Linear mode it does quite well to reproduce quite a bit of dynamic contrast that your speakers are capable of.

Hard to judge by the lousy iphone recordings of course and youtube compression as far as dynamics go but trust me, PrimaLuna does not back down. One of my favorite dynamic range recordings is the Hugh Masekela "Hope" album on both vinyl and SACD. Highly recommend it if it is not already in your collection.






So I grabbed what I thought is a pretty good example of PrimaLuna and Harbeth locked in sync and synergy to produce great dynamic contrast and present the "purity" of the human voice which is both the PL and Harbeth forte!
