It is listed under LISST, you have to select between octal and noval.

Thank you, Nerone, I did not see that.

I know it's not a huge deal, but Octal LISST are finally here. Also new tube options

I think it's great news. Looking forward to try them in my Freya. Less distortion is always welcome.
Will there still be the 14 dB gain on this stage with LISST instead of tubes?

thanks Jason, i ordered mine ( LISST ) for the Freya

So, for my Saga, take one tube out put one LISST in. But for my Freya, take four tubes out put ?2? LISSTs in? Where exactly? Do I need 4? Thanks,

Take four tubes out, put four LISST in -- or two LISST and two tubes. If you're only swapping two, swap out the voltage gain tubes first.

Wow, I put in my order and got a tracking number within 30 min. I'm impressed. With the new LISST devices my Freya will be even more of what I wanted. The Tung-Sol's where tempting but I'm not ready for that journey yet.

Great news.

Also pleasing to see that you're offering current gen TungSols. The Sovteks that came with my Freya were unlistenable to my ears. All sorts of crackly noise.

I'm guessing I wasn't the only one to have difficulties.

The thing that I'd miss with LISST tubes is the heart warning orange glow (especially at night) but that's nice to have.

I think I'll get better value out of not having an "eye catcher" that's followed by fingers that want to touch. My significant other got warm finger tips (once was enough) and my young daughter hasn't had the experience yet. With LISST she shouldn't have to.

Thanks for listening to the user base and keep it up with the good stuff ... and the next installment here as well..

What kind of 'deals' can we get?

Perhaps we need a tube lamp so you can still get the effect.

Very nice options for Freya now. It's like you read these threads!

I feel sorry for you....

How do the LISST differ from the ss fet preamp mode?

Voltage gain.

Probably converting single ended inputs to proper balanced output (signal and inverted signal), while JFET only passes the single ended input on using the balanced cable (signal and nothing).
