Charles1dad, I call hyper detail  HIFI vs. listening to music. When I go to most shows there is a lot of HIFI and very little music. I guess HIFI sells Better than music. By the way, my new MicroZOTL2 (actually MZ2-S) just seems to have broken in ... 
It is a good idea to purchase a vintage tube pre-amp.
Just received my Linear Tube MicroZOTL2 and it is stunner as a preamp right out of the box! Anyone looking for a preamp under $2,000 should give this a listen because it is amazing. It also responds to Tube rolling. I immediately put Tungsol Round...

 Corelli,             When I finally heard these speakers my thought was "how could these speakers be $3,000? If they had a big audio name on them they would be at a minimum $30,000. I know we don't buy speakers by the pound but these are large sp...

Another good bargain is the Doge 8. Which is about $1500 new. As I said earlier the Linear Tube MicroZotl2 is ridiculously good for the price. Terry London thinks it is outrageously good also and uses it in his reference system. I too had a bias t...

That was supposed to be" put in NOS tubes and it sounds sublime"

+1 on the Linear Tube MicroZotl2. It is amazing sounding piece that sells for less than 2K!!  My wife who is a professional musician actually noticed when it was in my system (on demo) About to pick up mine!I  Put NOS. tunes in it and it is sublim...

Terry definitely is crazy about the speakers! I have heard them at his house and they are a ridiculous bargain! They are huge and good and only 3k! Great deal for the audio community.

Melbguy,                 They are both great pieces! I conflated a couple of preamps in my last post. It is the Linear Tube MicroZOTL2 ( which I have on order and obviously thought was sensational) and I'm sure Line Magnetics must have some tasty ...

I would have said a year ago that your best choice would have been to go used (Thor, Supratek, ARC, older CJ etc.)This could be the golden age of inexpensive preamp! The rhumba, the Line Magnetcs Micro zotl2, the new Modwright, even the Pass headp...
