Any thoughts on the Viva Linea premap

[bebop86]

Guys saw a couple of these for sale but not much out there on the Viva preamps mostly the amps- anyone heard them - Also is there a big dif. between the older 300b and the new one- Also someone mentioned that they do not play well with some amp?- Not sure if that is true- thanks for the thoughts-

I have the big Viva Linea pre, in the latest release 2018 (and the big Fono too)
Actually paired with FM Acoustics amp, but tested in the past with various other top Brands, always with excellent results. Imho a match in heaven, with Tad R1.

I love my Linea. The Linea comes across as very neutral sound, ultra transparent, highly detailed, while being natural/realistic. Large and holographic sound stage. Tube gear done right.
