New LFD Zero LE mkIV


The scuttlebutt is that the LFD Zero LE mkIV is a completely revised and much better sounding unit that will be released in August and, obviously, replaces the LFD Zero LE mkIII.
LFD usually doesn't have much to say about their products. Rather allowing others to do the talking for them.

So what do the others (you all) have to say about this new amp?

Personally I am very excited!

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.
I've just ordered the MkIV, will be (potentially) replacing my Audio Space Ref 3.1 (300B). I need to trim down the system (maybe slim down is a better description) and am taking a leap of faith with the LFD...fingers crossed I will know by early next week. Personally I don't care about the looks, so long as the sound lives up to the expectations. Shame about the phono no longer being an option though.
Received the mk4 today, just installed but no critical listening..a quick run with cd showed a very different bass sound to my audio space, and a different mid range of course, but just running in a bit with simple tv feed. The new unit is similar to the ncse, missing some beveled edges and a different LFD badge. Rear inputs close together still but present a no issue for my cabling. Though the speaker terminals are not marked and don't follow right at top per the inputs. More to come when I can compare it over some familiar songs.
