@audioman58 - I’m not able to do the upgrade myself for awhile. Will have to wait a few months, unfortunately. Please share your review with us after the LTA level 3 is in your system and run-in!
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.

Does anyone have a firsthand experience comparing LTA pre-amp to PrimaLuna EVO 300 or 400 pre-amps? In one setup I have PrimaLuna EVO 300 integrated with efficient Cube Audio speakers - and I am happy with them sonically but replacing the darn power tubes is no fun. In another setup I have Pass Labs XA-25 power amp feeding rather demanding SVS Ultra Evolution Pinnacles - for this set I am looking for a tube pre-amp. LTA and EVO 300 are currently my top considerations. Thanks in advance. |
@tkukielk - Unfortunately, I’ve not had the opportunity to hear the Primaluna. I’d suspect the pass XA-25 with the LTA would be spectacular though. |
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. |
