| Puritan vs IsoTek vs inakustik I use the Puritan only for source components. My power amps always go directly to the wall, with a dedicated line to the panel. | |
| Puritan vs IsoTek vs inakustik I have had the exact opposite experience of @zlone. When I removed the P15 and introduced the Puritan, I couldn't believe the impact. Everything got better, making me feel like the P15 was doing nothing. | |
| ZH270 Question Are you referring to a David Berning ZH270? This amp is no longer in production, but David can be contacted through his website. | |
| Amplifier recommendations for 86 dB Sensitivity Speakers I have Janszen speakers 86db at 6 ohms. I use a single LTA ZOTL40 to great effect. The current this amp outputs has more than enough power to make these speakers sing. You could of course use two of them as mono blocks. | |
| Linear Tube Audio - Micro ZOTL - version -3 Update on upgrades @dotto81, I have Altec Lansing 1570B tube monoblocks that were modded by Exempler Audio. My Gamut RS5i speakers are what I usually use, but they have been moved aside since my local dealer temporarily set up Soundlab G7-3C speakers for an Audio Cl... | |
| Linear Tube Audio - Micro ZOTL - version -3 Update on upgrades @cbrez no downside to this mod that I can find. All positive. | |
| Linear Tube Audio - Micro ZOTL - version -3 Update on upgrades So clearly, going from version 2 to the new version 3 is a big jump in quality sound. What I’m hearing must result from less noise because the improvements are across the board. There is a smoother, grain-free presentation that is also seemingly... | |
| Linear Tube Audio - Micro ZOTL - version -3 Update on upgrades I picked up my level 3 preamp today. I'm pleasantly surprised at just how impactful this new version is. I'm loving this so far. More to come. | |
| Linear Tube Audio - Micro ZOTL - version -3 Update on upgrades I have my ZOTL pre at LTA now, getting the upgrade. I'm just waiting for Jacob to call me so I can go pick it up. I also own the Backert Labs Rythm 1.4 and look forward to a comparison. I'm a huge LTA fan, but I don't expect the ZOTL to be on the ... | |
| A life sentence!!! Backert Labs Rhythm 1.4 and LTA Aero DAC | |
| Sound proofing floor I installed mass loaded vinyl under the wood floor. It helped greatly to reduce the sound. I also lined the walls with it before the drywall went up. It is heavy and hard to work with but great results. | |
| Considering the BMR Philharmonic Monitor speakers I heard them at Capital Audiofest and was very impressed. I'm considering buying them for a second system. | |
| 12au7 tube? I use NOS 12SN7 with adapters in place of 12AU7's in my Backert Labs preamp. They are superior to the 12SN7"s. | |
| R2R next? Don't like ESS The LTA Aero is the last DAC I will ever need to buy. | |
| Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC no_regrets I use a Roon server and Sonore ultraRendu Network Streamer with LTA LPS Quboz, Roon. I’m not concerned anymore about DSD. The PCM sounds like DSD to me. Incredible. |
