Linear Tube Audio version 3 of the MicroZOTL pre

bluethinker I can be obsessive in trying to check all the boxes , LTA is just as obsessive in when they do come out with a upgrade it is a major one .

looking forwards to getting it sent out and getting it runin , this way too I can share exactly what changes I hear. I have 8 reference tracks I know very well . Now the wait and the breakin Patience sometimes is the hardest part !!

I think Shipping both ways is included as well as balanced Lundahl input transformers ,the Rays tubes add $480 I believe.

@audioman58 - I’m not able to do the upgrade myself for awhile. Will have to wait a few months, unfortunately. Please share your review with us after the LTA level 3 is in your system and run-in! 

Bluethinker  I will for sure give my comparisons I have a bunch of reference songs I know very well and wrote down highlights on each  and what to look for using my brothers Latest Gryphon Diablo latest model integrated  which is exceptional.

Does anyone have a firsthand experience comparing LTA pre-amp to PrimaLuna EVO 300 or 400 pre-amps?

In one setup I have PrimaLuna EVO 300 integrated with efficient Cube Audio speakers - and I am happy with them sonically but replacing the darn power tubes is no fun.

In another setup I have Pass Labs XA-25 power amp feeding rather demanding SVS Ultra Evolution Pinnacles - for this set I am looking for a tube pre-amp. LTA and EVO 300 are currently my top considerations.

Thanks in advance.
