Power meters - agree. Why do they put them on mc turntables???? Just their signature look ? Bothers me though. Too much of a good thing.

I would think that your Prima Luna Dialogue One would be sufficient as long as you don’t need mind bending volume. In the Netherlands Prima Luna amps are well regarded and regularly get good reviews so 40 watts or so should be enough if the Dialogue has good control over the speakers. Going form the Toy Towers to the Cremona M,s will be a big step up and the Cremona’s seam to need a bit of air around them to give of their best, but I see that you are using your present speakers well out into your room so they should be OK. As always it is best to try the combination before you buy.

I am due to retire soon and I bought my Cremona M speakers for more or less the same reason that you will, “a speaker for life” and I have no regrets.

Regards,
Fred.

Hi Srs,

I have a system very similar to this. I use LS27, VS115 and also MC252 with Cremona M. I'm very satisfied with my current system.

I'm thinking of changing the VS115 by a pair of MC275 150W mono.

The Cremona M are excellent, I think this would be a great buy.


Best regards,
Ricardo Nonato.

Hi everyone,

I was thinking if it was possible to connect a subwoofer to the Primaluna Dialogue One?

I am currently running the Primaluna with my Sonus Faber Concertino Home and thinking to add a subwoofer...

I drive my Cremona Ms with a 13w SET EAR 859 set to 4ohms,in an admittedly small room 13'x16',and living in an apartment I can't normally play the system loud anyway.
After reading this thread,and with the neighbors out I played "Walk on the Wild Side"as loud as I would ever want to listen,was amazed deep controlled detailed bass no hardening of the top end in fact superb.
The speakers are fairly new and I had not turned them up at home before,can't wait for the neighbors to go out again.
