    Crap, there's something else to talk about...

    https://www.massdrop.com/buy/linear-tube-audio-mz2-s-headphone-and-speaker-amp


    New Tube Amp—Here First
    Available first on Massdrop, the LTA MZ2-S is a high-end Class-A tube amplifier for your headphones that is also a preamp, tweeter amp, or high-efficiency speaker amp. It's an update on the company’s MicroZOTL2 based on user feedback. A revised circuit allows the use of high-quality NOS tubes while using the same ZOTL (zero-hysteresis output transformer-less) technology. Upgrades include NOS RCA 12SN7GTA tubes and a mil-spec variant of the 12AT7, the 6201 tube—selected based on customer feedback—and thicker, PCBs with double copper traces. The MZ2-S could be considered as a MicroZOTL2 that has already had its tubes rolled. These tubes are equivalent in sound signature to the 6SN7s, but require twice the voltage and half the current.

    I think you just gave Mr. Sorbothane another amp to drool over.

    The microzotl thread at head-fi is very amusing right now. Feliks Elise fanboys vs the >1000$ LPS guru.

    Really entertaining.

    Yes, for real. Remember, I'm a relative old fart and I get real sex.

    A Woo WA6 might be interesting to throw in there. I've always liked the WA6. Old school transformer coupled with none of this OTL or ZOTL stuff.
