Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC
@jake18aa +1 on Nicholas's customer service. He took all the time in the world to talk to me about the questions I had on the LTA MZ3 preamp. In fact as I was ready to end the conversation he mentioned he had a few months old MZ3 trade in for sale...

@ptrck887 The Shuguang Dawning Series WE6SN7 PLUS. Bought a pair on line from a Hong Kong dealer. Can you share this dealer's link, contact information? Thanks  
Warm, yet detailed tube preamp
For more detail, neutral midrange, vintage 6SN7 Sylvania GT work okay Having tried several different pairs of interconnects...each provided different results as well. @audiojan Warmth to me is more "meat on the bones" in the midrange. It’s no... 
Warm, yet detailed tube preamp
