LTA - Has Anyone Had First Hand Experiance?


Linear Tube Audio is offering up a couple of interesting "Bundles" and I was giving some consideration to this one:

Wondering if anyone else out there has gone this route and if so, are you happy with the system?

LTA also offers this bundle but it's more money and only offers an amp and speakers:

I have the Janszen zA2.1 Valentina and the ZOTL40 with the MZ preamp is a perfect pairing. I have found no other combo that sounds as good and I’ve spent far more money on other gear.
I can’t speak highly enough about LTA. David Berning’s designs are genius and Mark Schneider has brought them to another level not to mention bringing these amps more affordably to the masses. These are great guys to buy from. They stand behind their products and they have some great deals going on right now.
I don’t own Spatial speakers but I heard the combo at CAF and it was one of the best rooms at the show. The ZOTL40 and preamp make my Janszen hybrid electrostats sing like nothing I’ve ever heard before. 
My UltraLinear produced bass that was comparable to the very best solid state. I feel the UL and ZOTL40 are very similar in sound but the UL has a slight edge in bass quality and a very powerful 20 watts. In the end I kept the ZOTL40 because I needed a little extra power.
