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.

@sls883 ​In your opinion, is there a lot lost by using coda   with the RCA connection?​​​​​​

@paoz I don't think so, but I'm not able to do any comparisons. My amp sits directly beneath my preamp, so distance is not an issue

I've tried several interconnects (nothing too pricey) and find the Black Cat Silverstar 88 to work really well. 

@thriftyaudio - I once tried to post my system but got hung up with technical glitches. Will try to get it posted over the next few months. I’ve been cycling through different components and am torn between two potential reference systems. 

With the balanced Lundahl transformers is always a plus .

I just bought mine last month , They knew 1000% while building my pre ,why didn’t they at least offer me the upgrade option ,that was not very good ,not very ethical imo , and to be honest having the very high grade Lundahl input transformers is always a plus ,another $2 k ,  I bought their best tube setup ,and then got rid of the older Mullards for the far superior Medical grade Red top Telefunken 12au7 $500 a pair but well worth the detail and transparency.
