40+ watts SET, cost is not a problem Give David Berning a call | |
New R2R DAC @soix, I’m currently using the Modwright Oppo 205, but I have always wanted to try an R2R DAC. | |
New R2R DAC My new Linear Tube Audio Areo R2R Dac will arrive next week. I will report then. | |
Optical Phono Cartridges After trying many MM and MC cartridges in my system, including a 10K Blue Dragon, I now have a DS audio cartridge, and there is no going back. The lower-priced DS cart sounds better than the best MC cart I've had. | |
Best amps for Janszen speakers? I have used LTA’s ZOTL40 with Valentina’s for about ten years. I have tried many different amps in an effort to extract the best sound from these wonderful hybrid electrostats, and nothing can compete. The David Berning-designed amps are the best.... | |
Pass Labs Preamps with tube amps? The name is on it but Nelson does not design his preamps. They are an afterthought for him. | |

I'm going to buy my first tube amp. I need honest blunt opinions I owned those speakers a few years back. I tried a few tube amps but the best matchup was a SS Musical Fidelity M6PRX Power Amp. If I were to go with a tube amp I try a Linear Tube Audio ZOTL40. | |
Conrad Johnson Classic 120se vs. Linear Tube Audio 40 Reference Amps I don't have any experience with Conrad Johnson but extensive experience with David Berning and LTA. I have owned several non-OTL tube amps and the clarity and transparency along with the sweet EL34 midrange of my ZOTL40 amp surpasses them all. I ... |
