| Linear Tube Audio version 3 of the MicroZOTL pre @bluethinker I'm using a Coda No 8 V1 solid state amp. Before the LTA preamp, I had c-j tube preamps. | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Blind Ego - Liquid | |
| A life sentence!!! My Von Schweikert model ONE speakers. | |
| Linear Tube Audio version 3 of the MicroZOTL pre I think I'll hold off and wait for some reviews. $1950 to upgrade without balanced input transformers. Plus shipping. With my luck, mine would get lost or damaged in transit. | |
| Favorite Albums Not in the Mainstream Found on Streaming Services Rik Emmett and RESolution 9 - RES9. Great album in my opinion. Rik Emmett is well known, but not this group. Alex Lifeson plays on End of the Line. Cool guitar starts at 4:33. James Labrie sings on I Sing. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Nazareth - Hair of the Dog. | |

| I'm curious. What is your "normal" listening volume? My meter reads dBA. I cranked the volume up and 75 to 80 is pretty loud. I don't care to go much louder except for certain rock songs. My ears would bleed at 100+ dBA. | |
| Sound level listening @bassbuyer my preamp has a numeric display for the volume. I use that as a guideline. | |
| I'm curious. What is your "normal" listening volume? 60-75 | |
| New Magico Speaker Break-in Question Honest question... does a speaker such as the Magico create a harshness, or does it reproduce a harsh tone being sent to it with more clarity? I mean, do the drivers distort, etc and create the harshness? My previous preamp sounded really good mo... |
