Stereo Times review on the Linear Tube Audio MicroZOTL Preamplifier Level 3


Hey Gentleman,

My review on the LTA MicroZOTL Preamplifier Level 3 has just been posted on the Stereo Times website. This is a superlative reference level line-stage and I hope the review will give you the details why I came to this conclusion.

Cool - I just got one a new one a couple of weeks ago! (microZOTL, not Stereo Times).

Kind of a bare bones review and seems more like a preview — one short paragraph on how it sounds?  Really coulda used more here.

Hi Terry - Just read the review; excellent! But I don't know how 'easy' the remote was to use if you weren't used to their gear; it was probably the least intuitive remote/display screen combo I've ever seen, but I managed to get it mostly figured out. 

I've upgraded the 6SN7's to Ray Reserve, but is it a small or large difference when it comes to replacing the 12AT7/12AU7? I still have the stock ones in there. Thanks!

Terry, are you the owner, editor and sole reviewer for Stereo Times? Every Coda review I find is by you and for Stereo Times- there are no other reviews anywhere except your glowing reviews. Same thing with reviews of Mark Schifter's amps and woofers etc. - none anywhere and only you again with glowing reviews. Can you shed some light pls ? thanks 

Hey speedthrills,

The owner of Stereo Times is Clement Perry, I'm just a prolific staff writer who enjoys sharing information on great stereo equipment, particularly, small US boutique companies such as ( AricAudio, Linear Tube Audio, NSMT, Pine Tree Audio, Coda).

I had written reviews on Coda gear for another reviewing website before I joined Stereo Times as a staff writer. However, you must be confusing me with someone else regarding reviewing any amplifiers from Mark Schifter. I have reviewed two speakers that Underwood HiFi sells that Mark helped design, but not electronics.
