£1,750 is slightly above the 75th percentile of your recent comps at £1,747, so this reads as top-end market rather than a bargain, but it is only a hair over the line and still broadly defensible if the unit is clean and complete. Versus the median of £1,611, you’re paying a modest premium, so I’d call it ambitious but not silly.
The Evo 100 is well-regarded for the usual PrimaLuna strengths: a rich, effortless presentation, strong drive for the class, and a tube-friendly design that tends to reward rolling valves and careful ownership. If it’s genuinely tidy, with original packaging, a good tube set, and no service history red flags, the appeal is real; the main thing to check is tube age, output health, and whether any spares or accessories are included, since those can move the value on a piece like this.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
PrimaLuna, a boutique Dutch hi-fi brand, emerged in 2003 from the vision of Herman van den Dungen, a seasoned industry veteran with over 40 years of experience. Born in the Netherlands, van den Dungen had built his reputation earlier through Durob Audio, founded in 1975 as one of the first high-end importers in the Benelux region. Drawing on decades of tinkering with vintage radios and turntables, he launched PrimaLuna to democratize elite tube amplification, blending European design ingenuity with rigorous quality oversight in Chinese manufacturing.
The brand specializes exclusively in vacuum tube amplifiers, including integrated, power, and preamplifier models across series like ProLogue, DiaLogue, and EVO. PrimaLuna's hallmark is its unique construction—point-to-point wiring, custom transformers, and tube rectification—prioritizing sonic purity, longevity, and minimal servicing needs over broader categories like speakers, DACs, or turntables.
Positioned as high-end yet accessible, PrimaLuna occupies a niche among tube enthusiasts, earning acclaim for delivering "joyous cost-value surprises" through reliable, musically engaging performance that rivals pricier competitors. Its reputation for dependability and superb sound has solidified its status among discerning audiophiles worldwide, underscoring Dutch precision in a crowded market.
