THANK YOU!
We would like to thank you for choosing our PrimaLuna ProLogue Eight vacuum tube CD player as an
important part of your music system. It is the final piece in PrimaLuna’s critically-acclaimed introductory
line of affordable, high-quality tube products. The designers and builders of the PrimaLuna equipment
all have a long history in high-end audio. We feel that it is time to offer a range of affordable audio
instruments that can easily compete with today’s most expensive brands. We firmly believe that you
will be hard-pressed to find another product on the market that meets or exceeds the level of quality
you’ll find in this, or any other PrimaLuna product.
