| What solid state power amp are you using with your Harbeth Super HL5+ speakers? I have not owned Harbeth speakers but heard this model at an audio show with a Vinnie Rossi LIO, only 25 watts but It’s one of those unforgettable moments. There was also a very expensive vinyl rig playing something incredibly well recorded that a... | |
| AT-ART9XI Cartridge - Reduced Compliance A thicker stylus sounds good. I accidentally bumped my ART-9 and bent the stylus. | |
| Rogue RP-7 vs MicroZotl. Reference Don’t overlook the Micro ZOTL just because it hasn’t been around that long. It is the most incredible preamp and in my opinion nothing can touch it in its price range. | |
| What tube pre-amps pair well with Pass amps? Linear Tube Audio ZOTL Preamp | |
| Preamp suggestions, yes again Linear Tube Audio MZ2 | |
| What Combinations of Components Have You Put Together That Sound Good? I love my Janszen zA2.1 Valentina hybrid electrostatic speakers and I went through a number of amps, trying to find that elusive synergy. I stopped looking when I found the Linear Tube Audio ZOTL40 and ZOTL preamp to be a match made in heaven. It’... | |
| Cerious technologies or audio envy I love my CT Graphene Matrix Speaker cables and IC’s. They sound great with my Coda #16 amp. I tried many cables but not the Audio Envy. | |

| Preamp under $2,000. If you don’t need a lot of bells an whistles, nothing at this price can touch the Linear Tube Audio MZ2. Nothing! | |
| Seeking advice on Speakers that create an intimate 2 channel listening experience I have a pair of Janszen zA2.1 Valentina with Linear Tube Audio ZOTL40 and preamp. I can’t top the sound I’m getting from this combo. My second system has much more money invested but can’t match the electrostats. | |
| Best Speakers for a small Nearfield room, budget at most $10000 (used is also ok) TAD ME-1 stand mount | |
| Are MULLARD NOS EL34s and LTA ZOTL40 REF worth the price of admission? I have NOS Mullard EL34’s and a quad of Sophia Electric EL34ST. The Sophia’s are as close to Mullard EL34 as you can get which makes them the best new production EL34 tubes made but they are expensive.For you guys that have a new Z10 or ZOTL40, gi... | |
| Tube rolling your Linear Tube Audio Zotl10/Zotl 40 In my ZOTL40 the best NOS tubes are Mullard EL34 or Amperex EL34, I also Have a NOS quad of Genelex Gold Lion KT77 that is in this top tier.The best new production tubes I’ve used are Sophia Electric EL34ST | |
| What's your "diminishing returns" preamp choice? Absolute biggest bang for the buck is the Linear Tube Audio MZ2. You would have to spend a few thousand more to see improvement | |
| Are MULLARD NOS EL34s and LTA ZOTL40 REF worth the price of admission? @bananaslug,It is worth it. I love the XF2 Mullard EL34’s and will never part with them. I also have an older ZOTL40 and have taken it in to to get the latest mods. Check with Mark but I think for the price you will be getting more than just exce... |
