Linear Tube Audio- Any feedback on their amps/ Preamp?

I recently was told by another member about Linear Tube Audio as they are using David Berning's designs (approved by David) and are made in the USA.  The Micro ZOTL 2.0 pre has just received great reviews and they also offer the ZOTL 40 and ZOTL 10 amps.  I would really like to get some feedback from someone that owns the pre and one of the amps.  Thanks!

It's apparently been sent on a slow boat. It should be delivered today.

T_ramey, the Micro ZOTL2 plays very well with the Job 225.  The clarity and detail of the Micro as a preamp is astounding. It seems to add no sonic character of its own. Maybe I've never heard a 10K preamp but I've never heard heard anything this good.

Very nice!

What speakers are you using with the microZOTL/Job225 combo?

In this system I'm using Decware ERRx radial speakers (very good Omni speakers for the price)

I will eventually move things around and try a set of Monitor Audio GX300's I have.

t_ramey,

I own the Pass XA30.8 and am borrowing a First Watt SIT-2 amplifier. 

Am planning to try them both with the MicroZOTL2.0 preamp in January or February. 

I hooked up the SIT-2 this week and it is one of the most amazing sounding amplifiers you will ever hear. I'd expect mating it with LT MicroZOTL2.0 will make serious magic. I'll let you know when I do. Happy holidays.
