For Classical and female vocals, I would go with the LT1. It is a little lusher in the midrange, which will be better for those musical styles.

Maybe I should not take such heft with reviews by enthusiasts especially those who don't have much to compare to. You and HeadphoneAddicts reviews are the best thanks for all your hard work! |

Music used for the review: •Patricia Barber – “All or Nothing at All”, Nightclub •Holly Cole, “Looking for the Heart of Saturday Night”, Temptation •Crash Test Dummies, “In the Days of the Caveman”, God Shuffled His Feet •Dave Matthews, “Oh”, Some Devil •Jenny Lewis with the Watson Twins, “Handle With Care”, Rabbit Fur Coat. Listening was done with the levels matched to within 1db using a RS SPL meter, so that the listening volume level was identical with each amp. Source was a RedWineAudio iMod iPod, connected with an RnB Audio interconnect. No attempt is going to be made here to completely describe each amp – this has been done plenty of places on this site. Rather, I scored the amps based my listening in the areas of midrange, treble, and bass performance, transparency, neutrality, soundstaging, build quality, and other pertinent comments. I used an academic grading scale, but as in most academics, the lowest grade any of these amps got was a B-, since they were all pretty good. At the end I will rank each of them, but to start they are listen in alphabetical order. Also, in case there is any question, I purchased all of these amps with my own hard-earned money, and they are the stock amplifiers – no mods of any kind were done. Where there was a bass boost function, it wasn’t used. |
