| Tekton Double Impacts @david_ten the DI SE are still breaking in so not the best way to review isolation. Since I took them out of the box last week They have been sitting on the carpet without any feet at all. Now I have the outriggers for stability and the Isoacousti... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @corelli, me too.so far I can say with these speakers the LTA UltraLinear sounds better than the ZOTL40 and the ZOTL40 sounds pretty darn good. The ULs 20 watts are all that is needed. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts My DI SE are breaking in nicely and sounding incredible. I just put the SoundCity Outriggers and Isoacoustics GAIA I footers on finally. I’m running a Modwright Oppo 205 direct to LTA UltraLinear. I will insert the MZ2 as a preamp to see what diff... | |
| SW1X Audio Design DAC II Absolute Top Tier Ref NOS DAC I think I need to hear this DAC. I’m guessing it won’t be easy. | |
| bose 501 speakers I walked into a Audio store around 1976 and had every intention of buying the Bose 501. I knew what I wanted. When I told the salesman he said sure but you should listen to this pair of ESS speakers for around the same price first. Well there was ... | |
| German Physiks - Listening Impressions Wanted They have a huge sweet spot and sound best out tword the middle of the room or at least away from walls. I own the much less expensive Decware ERRx radial speakers and they sound best this way also. | |
| German Physiks - Listening Impressions Wanted @kdude66,I have only heard them at shows and they have certainly been at every show I’ve ever attended. Strangely, I have heard them sound so incredibly good, amongst the best sound I’ve heard and then I’ve also heard them sound really just so so ... | |
| Tube Preamps..... @judgementday,I sold my AI MB3 when I found that my MZ2 was a superior sounding preamp even though it doesn’t have as much functionality. The one outstanding thing about the AI MB3 was the incredible John Curl phono stage. My solution was the buy ... | |
| Linear Tube Audio at Axpona Bob, I have not heard those speakers so I can’t comment on sound but at 93db even the 1 watt MZ2 would work in a small room. Because my 93db ERRx will go pretty loud with the MZ2 direct. Most likely the ZOTL10 would be best. Mark does have a 30 da... | |
| Question for Linear Tube Audio Mz2 Owners @emil I have two Micro ZOTLs. I will most likely sell one of them when I purchase the new Microzotl Preamp that will be available in a few weeks. | |
| Question for Linear Tube Audio Mz2 Owners The upgraded power supply definitely sounds better. I have 2 of them. | |
| Review: Linear Tube Audio (LTA) "Ultralinear" Amplifier In my room the UltraLinear is the best amp I’ve ever heard.I am now beta testing the new LTA Micrzotl Preamp and it is proving itself to even better than the MZ2. | |
| Tube Preamps..... The MZ2 adds nothing detrimental to the sound except dynamics and added soundstage size. It is a clear conduit otherwise. I agree that it’s the best preamp I’ve owned, much better than my AI Modulus.I am testing the new Micro ZOTL Preamp now and i... | |
| Linear Tube Audio at Axpona @baranyi Mark said about 4 weeks for production models to go out. | |
| Linear Tube Audio at Axpona @baranyi MicroZOTL Preamp vs MZ2 The same house sound just more of it. The new preamp has a wider, more clearly defined sound stage and more sparkle at the top. The bass is just a bit more real sounding. There is smoothness, a little smoother with... |
