Linear Tube Audio version 3 of the MicroZOTL pre


LTA has announced a version 3 of the MicroZOTL preamp. From their website, it sounds like a fairly significant upgrade. I reached out to them and they mentioned refinements in bass and the high end.

There is also an upgrade path for current MicroZOTL owners. Wanted to share for LTA owners and fans.

I took the leap. I also really trust LTA and have been a huge David Berning fan since I heard some of his gear many moons ago. 
There is currently a backlog on the updates and I told LTA I would wait a bit until they worked through that before I send my unit in. So not sure when I’ll get mine upgraded, but I am sure it will be beneficial.

@bluethinker Regarding any additional information, LTA mentioned the following:

notably more refined with a quieter noise level and an easy, free flowing presentation

This in addition to the refinements in bass and top end.

I also am using a Pass XA25. I think it is a marvelous amplifier and it sounds wonderful IMO with my Dynaudio speakers.

I do use the MicroZOTL with a Pass XA25 on a pair of Dynaudio Heritage Specials. I think it is a great combination - very musical, dynamic, engaging. I have not heard the PrimaLuna to compare.

Also very glad LTA worked things out with @audioman58. Customer experience counts for so much and LTA has a very solid reputation at this point. They have always been very responsive when I have reached out.
