Item: Primare i22 integrated amplifier with optional DAC Location: Melbourne Price: $700 Item Condition: Good see pics Reason for selling: Upgraded to an active system. Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: Bought this off another member a bit over a year ago, used lightly since then. Have driven my Dynaudio speaker’s beautifully. This 80W Primare punches out loud bass effortlessly and for a class D amp it is surprisingly smooth, detailed and quiet. Have loved having it but it is no longer needed as I’ve moved to an active system. It has a very decent on-board DAC that can also to be bypassed. Comes with original remote. The previous owner had a couple of scratches on the top rear panel, the photos makes it worse as it's hard to notice normally. I've priced this unit quite low with this in mind. Local pickup preferred but I can also ship on your expense.

Item: Primare A34.2 Stereo Power Amp (Bridgeable) Location: NSW 2257 Price: $1,050 Item Condition: Excellent Reason for selling: See Below Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: I purchased this from “overjp” in December last year – in fact I have recycled his original pic’s. This really is a very nice stereo power amp putting out 150W / channel into 8 ohms - more than enough, really. However, being a bit “power hungry” it was my intention to find a 2nd (black) A34.2 and use them as bridged mono-blocks. Astoundingly, in that config a single A34.2 will push out over 500W / channel into 8 ohms!! That said, I got a bit impatient, and I found a set of 350W / channel Class D’s at a decent price, so this unit is now surplus. Reselling it for what I paid a few months back – a VERY reasonable $1,050. (For comparison, there is a Silver demo A34.2 on Gumtree now for $2,199! ) Excellent online reviews. Takes both balanced and RCA inputs. Cosmetically perfect unit, as far as I can see. Comes with original box, and all extras – bridging cable, CD instructions, manual, etc. Happy to post if you meet the cost & insurance. OR……pickup from 2257 Central Coast, NSW - or 2071 Killara.

It's taken a while but my Apogee den is basically finished. Partly underground, this room is 6.5x9.5m, with rendered Hebel walls and secondary glazed windows and doors. The system comprises of Apogee Caliper Signatures powered by Primare Pre60 pre-amp and Primare A60 power amp. SInce the pre60 has it's own upsampling DAC, a Roon Nucleus feeds directly into it via USB. The files are on a NAS Drive elsewhere in the house. An Isotech conditioner and MIT interconnects help open up and smooth the soundstage. A Krell KSA80 is on hand for party mode. Compared to the Primare it has more grunt but it has less musicality and a smaller sound-stage. The room is a project I have been working on for over a decade and I think it's worth it! Close up of action area. The panels on the left side stop excessive echo behind the speakers. They are not fixed in place yet as I am still experimenting with placement view from listening seat: And the listening area with my "RPG" bookcase: If you like the cushions, you can buy them on Redbubble, search for artist "elmpinedesign" (my wife) 😊 Cheers Ralph

Item: Primare A30.7 Power Amp Location: Melbourne Metro Price: $1950 Item Condition: Excellent Reason for selling: Upgraded. Payment Method: Cash - COD Only Colour: Titanium Silver Extra Info: Comes with original box, manual & cables. Please note that interconnects are not included. Power ratings: 7 channels at 150w at 8 ohms and 300w at 4 ohms all channels driven. It can be used with both balanced or unbalanced cables, but it is a fully balanced design so best results will be obtained using balanced cables. The A30.7 is still a current model and RRP new is $3999. It is in excellent condition and working order. It also only draws a very miserly 650W at full power and won't send your electricity meter into free fall. Unit was purchased new from Whatmoughs. What you see in the photos below is what you get. No tricks, no snake oil, no gimmicks. Reviews: You'll find a review on A30.7 here https://www.primare.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/SP33-A30.7-i-fidelity-1.pdf Pictures:

Item: Primare SP33 Pre/Pro Location: Melbourne Metro Price: $1250 Firm Item Condition: Excellent Reason for selling: Just Another Lame Excuse To Upgrade Payment Method: Cash, COD Only, Colour: Titanium Silver Extra Info: Comes in original box with C24 remote, 12V trigger lead, power lead and instruction manual............and no, it doesn't have the pseudo 4K board, so if you can get over that please read on. It is in excellent condition and working order.The SP33 is still a current model and retails for $5999. It is of a modular design that can be upgraded as Primare release new boards for it. Having owned a number AVRs over the years, I can quite confidently say it is the only one that I've owned that is genuinely as good with stereo content as it is with multichannel content. This SP33 was purchased from the Lifestyle Store Parramatta (John) as a demo unit. What you see in the photos below is what you get. No tricks, no snake oil, no gimmicks. Pictures:

Item: Primare SP33 Location: 3782 VIC Price: $1.900 plus shipping Item Condition: Excellent Reason for selling: Chasing butterflies. Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal (Friend) . Extra Info: Item can be shipped in original packaging. Extra Info: Item can be auditioned. This Pre Processor doesn’t come with a lot of bells and whistles, but I prefer not to waste money spend in area’s that don’t improve things if the basics aren’t right. And that is producing excellent audio. Its build quality is superb and has all the connections you probably going to need. I decided to put it up for sale to raise funds before I start chasing butterflies, or unicorns. Pictures:

Item: Primare i32 integrated amplifier (no DAC board) Location: Brisbane Price: $1300 Item Condition: 9/10 Reason for selling: Too many amps Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: I am the second owner of the amplifier and it is in very good condition with no visible marks (there may be some superficial marks I am not aware of). The sound is fantastic - tight, fast and a little warm as well with good control of bass. I ran the amp with some Sonus Faber Concerto Domus and achieved detailed spacial stereo imaging. There are a number of reviews about the amplifier online which provide an in depth review of the amplifiers sound and performance. Additionally, it does has a very high WAF which always helps I don't have the original box so local pickup is preferred.

Extra Info: Postage to be discussed Up for sale is a 5 channel mono design power amplifier from Primare. Each channel has its own toroidal power transformer and capacity bank. "Rather than using a single large transformer, as is typical in multichannel amplifiers, the A30.5 has a separate toroidal transformer for each channel; this could be described as "quintuple-mono construction." There is also an emphasis on current capability, with a total of 40 amps on tap" The Amp is 7 years old and in good working condition, there is however a small scratch on the front panel as shown in the picture. It has been boxed up for the past 3 years due to house move renovations etc. NLR as I am not pursuing an Atmos setup anymore.

And it’s not just the interface that scores highly, as they’re also blessed with a sonic finesse that opens up the music to show it at its best, while being equally forgiving of poorer sources. Treat them to some hi-res material and they’ll really show just what they’re capable of." Presentation of every musical style is clear and unfussy; the combo offers a deep and detailed insight into the action and follows every impulse with lightning speed. It never loses sight of the musical flow: sound events on the Primares are always a finely woven and spatially generous in width and depth across every genre. The individual frequency ranges blend with each other in a harmonious balance, which means that the combo is right extended listening sessions, because it is always without harshness." http://www.primare.net/products/pre32-preamplifier/ Pictures: Stock

Item: Primare SP31 (black) Location: Canberra Price: $850 now $765 + postage Item Condition: VGC Reason for selling: Not being used. Decided to skew setup to home theatre use and have reverted to two systems, so have purchased a processor for ATMOS and room correction. Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: I have owned since new. It has actually had limited HT use (note, it is not a HDMI model). For critical music use, using either digital or analogue inputs, it is quite accomplished. There are 16 assignable inputs (8 digital and 8 analogue). From the maker "Proprietary Processing - The SP31uses proprietary DSP circuitry developed by Primare, to provide a far more convincing multi-channel sound stage than the standard off-the-shelf circuits used in many other surround processors. It provides up to 192kHz/24 bit processing to accommodate all the current multi-channel audio formats. Audiophile circuit design - The main engine is the Crystal CS493200-series DSP processor together with four high performance 24bit/192kHz Burr-Brown PCM1738 DACs. Operational amplifiers NE5532 from Philips and Burr-Brown OPA2134 are used for the current to voltage conversion. Level control is carried out by four Burr-Brown PGA2311 (an improved version of the famous Crystal CS3310) and the final amplifier stage consists of Analogue Devices AD845 for the important front and centre channels. The remaining channels use Burr-Brown OPA2134 and all the output stages use precise DC-servo controls, instead of the use of output capacitors. DC-servo circuits have only moderate effect on sonic performance compared to capacitors. The video design uses an Analogue Devices AD8111 with incorporates 160MHz bandwidth for composite and S-video switching. On-screen displays are generated by the advanced analogue OSD-generator STV5730 from ST Microelectronics. High bandwidth component switching is carried out by Analogue Devices AD8075, which actually performs much better than normal analogue relays. Shortest signal paths - 1% Melf resistors are used in critical positions for their excellent sonically performance and possibility to provide short signal paths, a key element in high performance audio designs." The unit is in very good condition. In the interests of full disclosure, it has very light swirl-scratching on the glass face (though you would need to look very closely) and two light scratches above the control knobs (again, not really obvious unless you look for them - in fact, I am having trouble photographing to show them). The unit weight (without packaging) is 10kg. I have the original shipping boxes. I also have the remote, however it doesn't work (whether it's the remote or the IR receiver I don't know). Pictures:

Hi all, I am considering a number of power amp and integrated amp options at the moment, one of which is the primare i32. i have been dealing with Mark Hyland at Frank Prowse HiFi in Nedlands, and cannot speak highly enough of the unbiased advice and flexibility he has provided - being able to try out equipment in my own home has been invaluable. I mention this as a nothing more than a commendation, as we usually only of bad experiences. Mark is currently sourcing a unit for me to try out at the moment, so thought i would see if the forum members can assist with a couple of questions i have. Does anyone have any experiences with this unit they can share? I am also interested in the MM30 board option for the simplicity it could provide, and would be interested in any feedback on the performance of the DAC comparative to a stand alone unit. For additional info, i use a yamaha adventage 3050 (of which the front pre-outs would go to the power amp / bypass on the integrated), a teac UD501 in conjunction with mac mini for server purposes, and my front speakers are monitor audio GS60's.
