Hello hello - I just up and decided to go tubes push/pull ZOTL from a highly recognized designer David Berning.
i got me one of his new designs called the ZOTL10 and his MicroZOTL 2.0 w/linear power supply.
I'll be a monkey's uncle if these two pieces are the bomb and a half.
I happened to to already own some high efficiency speakers I shoved off to the side (why I'll never know) but yanked them out once the two little babies arrived.
I did hook the ZOTL10 (10 watts) up to a pair of Revel M-106 and was pleasantly surprised. Hooked up to the Super V's well now, holy crap. Absolutely blew me away. Immense power, imaging almost as though the musicians are in the room.
I'm so blown away with both pieces I'm actually thinking of selling off my mega solid state system less my preamp and potentially say good by to big solid state amps and those ghastly expensive 4-way speakers that can't hold a candle to the single driver babies I had shoved off in the closet.
My gosh I'd say buy one of those ZOTL10 and prepare to be blow away.
You will need somewhat high efficiency speakers however. I think it lists for $2400 but who knows maybe some wheeling and dealing could get you a break but if you bought that sucker I don't think you'd ever look back. I know I haven't and it keeps getting better as it breaks in . David Berning is a magical guy with electronics. I believe Urbanhifi.com is the only distributor out of DC. It's my recommendation in flying colors. They also make a ZOTL40 but it's much more money but compared to Favid Berning's top of line gear this is all chump change. His flagship amps are $75K but these new ones use the same history making circuit. The only one of its kind in this century to. Berning is a genius of all genius's. I heard when other electrical engineers try figuring out his circuit they just give up saying they don't understand anything about what he's doing its so advanced. All I can say is I am so so glad I'd heard of Mr. Berning otherwise I wouldn't have known to buy these amps. I think you will absolutely love them and they will change how you listen to music for the good for ever, so far it has mine. Good Luck and Happy Listening. Jwt
