Modwright LS100 vs LTA MicroZOTL

Does the MicroZOTL have a rich sound?

@mdrone 

The short answer is yes but not at the sacrifice of clarity or a noisy veil. It is the first preamp that improved the sound of my amp by a good margin. The ZOTL Pre is also sensitive to tube rolling so richness yes.

I’ll defer to @armstrod as he’s got the real goods, but by everything I’ve read the Modwright will sound warmer and the LTA relatively more neutral but still with some tube goodness.  I just got an MZ2 but it’s still in the box because my amp is getting fully modded at SMcAudio and won’t be done for another couple weeks.  I’ll report back on my impressions if anyone cares. I’ll also post my impressions of the MZ2 as a headphone amp in the headphone section as I’ll also be using it to drive my Hifiman Arya Stealths.  Again, if anyone cares. 

@lancelock How would you describe the differences between the MZ2 and MicroZOTL?  This only applies if you had the upgraded power supply on the MZ2, otherwise I assume it’s no contest. 

And just to expand the search how about the Modwright LS 36.5. Though I am a little leary of the 6H30 super tube; as it is not easily rolled and I have heard the modern version can be harsh. Not to go down the geo-political route
