The LFD LE III was big disappointment for me. I'm not interested in the next gen at all. The mkIV "looks" worse than the LE III!
Their design is simply unmoving and the on/off switch on the LFD LE III was a joke (I mean come on a cheap plastic switch!). Yes, for a solid state integrated amp it sounded good but aesthetically very unappealing to me. I hope they put some distance between the RCA connectors in the back on the IV and lower the price. A lot.
