| Anyone hear a Croft Integrated Amp? Put some better tubes in the 25R and 7R and now I’m completely blown away! What a dummy I was leaving those JJs in place. Put a NOS Telefunken in the line stage. Wow! Amperex from Holland (red labeled Hammond) tubes in the phono stage. Orange labe... | |
| Anyone hear a Croft Integrated Amp? @noromance Comparing the new Dynavector P75 IV phono amp (set to MM) to the Croft 25R just used as a MM phono amp via tape out. Highly modded SL-1200/20X2L/Audionote AN-S2 SUT. Phono pre running to SN2 on to P3ESRs. Two REL S/2 subs in stereo. W... | |
| Anyone hear a Croft Integrated Amp? @autre Sorry, I’ve only had the Croft seperates. First round 25RLS and 7RS. I now have a 25R and 7R and I’m astounded. With a high end source it is just KILLER! I use mine with Harbeth P3ESRs and might have had the first Croft combo with the Ke... | |
| Anyone hear a Croft Integrated Amp? I can use the tape outs with the phono input on the 25R. WoohoooMagic is back with 25R/7R and P3ESR speakers. Went full circle. World class and I think I just have stock tubes in this set. | |
| Anyone hear a Croft Integrated Amp? Anyone know if I can use the tape outs while using the built-in phono input on a Croft 25R pre? Seems like I read you couldn’t on the less expensive phono integrated. | |
| Linear Tube Audio- Any feedback on their amps/ Preamp? Wonder if it will have MC too. About to buy a DV 75 Mk. IV. But it might be hard to beat it with the Dr. T mode with my 20X2L. Am sure it will be a lot more then the MZ2-S. | |
| Linear Tube Audio- Any feedback on their amps/ Preamp? Man. Ultralinear sounds amazing. Okay I’m adding it to the list. Just kind of shocked the ZOTL 10 powers the P3ESRs. Funny how Enjoy The Music just published a great ZOTL 10 review right when I decide to keep mine. He also seems to be the first st... | |
| Linear Tube Audio- Any feedback on their amps/ Preamp? Terry London from hometheaterreview.com seems to really like the Micro-ZOTL with the XA-25. So did teajay here at Audiogon. List goes on... Jack from theaudiobeatnik.com reviewed the XA-25 with the MZ2-S but seemed to like the HPA-1 best. " T... | |
| Linear Tube Audio- Any feedback on their amps/ Preamp? I was set on a Naim Nait 2 and was comparing some Proac Tablette 10s to my old Harbeth P3esr speakers. For grins, hooked up the ZOTL 10 to my Sennheiser’s HDV 820 pre outs with the P3s playing. Wow! Doesn’t go loud but I sit nearfield. Still cur... | |
| Linear Tube Audio- Any feedback on their amps/ Preamp? I want to get to RMAF or CAF this year. Since I already have an LTA system, guess RMAF would be fine since all I’ll be buying is music :). Still would like to meet the LTA folks at CAF and tell them thank you personally. | |
| Linear Tube Audio- Any feedback on their amps/ Preamp? Awesome review! Agree with every word. The records of Cecile McLorin Salvant have been in my Music Direct wish list for a while. The redbook of Woman Child blew my crazy audiophile friend away with the MZ2/Z10. Wait until he hears it on vinyl. | |
| Any love for the Belles Aria or other recent Belles amplifier? The Belles Aria/Vandersteen VLR combo was amazing! Problem was I was trying to merge 2 channel with headphone listening. Also trying to get something small for my desk. I've moved on to a Linear Tube Audio MZ2 headphone amplifier/preamplifier, Z... | |
| Linear Tube Audio- Any feedback on their amps/ Preamp? New huge Linear Tube Audio, David Berning fan in Texas. Had it all and favorites so far, Harbeth/Croft separates, Harbeth/LFD NCSE, Harbeth/Naim SN2, Leben/Devore. I was waiting for my Harbeth 30.1s to get repaired and got into headphones to keep ... | |
| Any love for the Belles Aria or other recent Belles amplifier? I still have it. Any good interconnect or speaker cable recommendations for the Aria/Vandie VLR combo? Might even want to try a few more DACs. Using a Chord 2Qute now. | |
| Any love for the Belles Aria or other recent Belles amplifier? Stupidly sold my first Aria and just got another. Just can't believe this thing. I don't remember the headphone amp sounding great in the first one and on a whim, hooked up my Sennheiser HD800S headphones. Geeeze. I'm going to sell my Violectric V... |
