| Berning ZH270 Upgrades @brettmcee yes, David’s a very nice guy. Even though we’ve become friends he still takes a week to reply to an email from me. He’s is sort of semi retired especially since Mark has really kicked in their production.Mark is also a good guy to talk ... | |
| Berning ZH270 Upgrades @brettmceeJust email David Berning. He is the only one other than maybe Mark Schneider of LTA that can work on these amps. Berning’s designs are extremely complicated and I would trust no one else to work on them. http://davidberning.comThe other ... | |
| Pass - Auralic - TAD System - Thoughts / Changes ? @truboneys In that size room definitely don’t toe them in. Try a 7’ equilateral triangle. You will only be able to get them a couple of feet off of the front wall.I also have better power late at night and it makes a difference in sound quality bu... | |
| Pass - Auralic - TAD System - Thoughts / Changes ? @truboneysI don’t toe in the ME-1’s at all. They can be very bright with those beryllium tweeters pointed at you. They’re in my living room at the moment so one speaker is close to the wall and the other far. A terrible room for sound but temporar... | |
| Pass - Auralic - TAD System - Thoughts / Changes ? I have the TAD ME1 speakers and love them. I’m guessing the Pass Labs gear sounds great and has good synergy. These speakers seem to like SS better than tubes so far.Since this a cable forum may I suggest you try the Cerious Technologies Cables. I... | |
| OPPO Sonica DAC to Lumin D2 Upgrade My Modwright Oppo Sonica sounds unbelievably good.Lance | |
| Spatials = Done for now! I heard the Spatials at CAF with Linear Tube Audio UltraLinear mono’s. It was one of the best rooms at the show. | |
| Big speakers in small room at moderate volume levels @yyzsantabarbara I have the TAD’s in my living room currently. My living room is a horrible room to get good sound out of speakers with the L shape and all glass on one side but they still sound wonderful. The listening room at CAF was set up bett... | |

| The first review on the Linear tube Audio MicroZOTL preamplifier has gone up @facten, There is no out board PS. All in one unit and by far superior to the MZ2 with linear PS. | |
| Hiss/ground problems on a LTA MZ2/40 The MZ2 worked well for me as a pre amp, better than much more expensive dedicated preamps. I now have the new Micro ZOTL Preamp and it is incredible. Best I’ve heard. | |
| best preamps This the best pre I’ve ever heard:https://hometheaterreview.com/linear-tube-audio-microzotl-preamplifier/ | |
| Tube / SS amp that handles 4ohm loads well and delivers lively texture / palpability @zuio zero lacking in immediacy. The new LTA UltraLinear produces the best tightest bass I’ve ever heard in a tube amp. | |
| Tube / SS amp that handles 4ohm loads well and delivers lively texture / palpability You need to audition a Linear Tube Audio UltraLinear tube amp. It delivers the most powerful, dynamic bass I’ve ever heard in a tube amp. It has the authority of Solid state with the sweetness of tubes with a totally black noiseless background.htt... | |
| What’s a 10k to 15k speaker from smaller company that performs well? I second the TAD ME-1. I just picked up a demo pair at CAF. They are spectacular. The biggest deepest bass in a smallish cabinet. |
