Primare I35 Prisma Integrated Amplifier

Primare PRISMA: Experience the new range

The 2017 product range features Prisma, Primare’s new whole-home, high fidelity control and connectivity solution. Prisma offers network playback from stored and streamed media, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® connection, as well as multi- room/multi-zone connectivity and control, all managed through the Prisma application, allowing Prisma system management from any mobile device.

i35 prisma

The I35 Prisma integrated amplifier is the first to use the new UFPD 2 power system, a refinement of Primare’s award-winning UFPD all-analogue Class-D technology. Providing 150 watts at 8 ohms, the I35 Prisma offers fully balanced analogue input options and a full-featured DAC.

The new DM36 full-featured DAC.

 The DM36 is a completely new and thoroughly designed digital to analog converter, utilising an ESS ES9068A chipset with resolution of up to PCM 384 and DSD 256, significantly improving overall performance over its predecessor DM35, providing a sound that is more richly detailed and lifelike, with more precise three dimensionality within a larger soundstage.

Additionally, the DM36 provides full MQA processing capabilities with both Prisma and Primare CD sources.

With the Prisma application update planned for launch in May, embedding both Qobuz and Tidal, the Prisma models listed above with the DM36 module will allow for the final MQA unfold to 384 kHz when playing Tidal Master files. Noting that for all other Prisma models, including those using the DM35 DAC module, the update will allow for the first full MQA unfold to resolution up to 96 kHz, Qobuz resolution up to 192 kHz, and gapless playback for both platforms.

In our CD players and transports, MQA CD playback is supported with CD15 Prisma DD15, CD35 Prisma, and DD35 when using Toslink optical or RCA coaxial digital out connection to the DM36.

Excellent amplifier
26 November 2020  | 

The Primare I35 amplifier with integrated DAC was purchased in September. Very pleased all round, excellent detail, spacious, with very good depth, unobtrusive in a very good way. Pleasure to use and look at. Enough inputs / outputs, DAC seems very good. Overall very well balanced throughout.
One important note is that from new mine took 100 hours to sound good and 200 hours to hit top form, this is with something playing not just at idle. The good thing after that, is even on when switched on from cold it sounds very good from the off. These points I feel are important.
Excellent knowledgeable service from Martin.
