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 think I'll hold off and wait for some reviews.  $1950 to upgrade without balanced input transformers. Plus shipping.  With my luck, mine would get lost or damaged in transit.

Just purchased my version 2 a few months ago. Guess I will wait till the version 4 upgrade.

I just upgraded to level 2. I found the upgrade was absolutely worth it. I’m going to wait for awhile but will upgrade when it makes sense in the future. I trust LTA. When they say it’s an upgrade, sign me up. Great company.

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.
