Linear Tube Audio MicroZOTL MZ3 Headphone Amp/Pre Amp/Integrated Amp

True. While it does many things well, power and authority aren’t its calling card.

I have not, but I have come across some say that the Z10 capably drives the Abyss 1266.

Interested in getting a set of lcd-x for my mz2. Anyone have any thoughts on LTA/audeze pairings?

I used the LCD 2.2 pf off the mz3 and enjoyed it quite a bit. The X is brighter so I cant say for certain, but I use the HD800S off it and it works. Same with the Clear.
The other planar that worked really well was the Empyrean.
I think it’ll be ok, LTA amps seem to be pretty versatile. Though audeze and variations were real with the two Xs that I’ve owned. Maybe the 2021 models are more uniform?

Thanks @Rhodey I thought as much. I “want” the LCD 5, but the X is more realistic, for now :wink:
