Just received back my Joule LA-150 tubed pre from Jud Barber after being upgraded to the MK2 status. Must say a significant change from the previous tube setup, resulting in a vastly more musical and organic presentation. Through my Merlin VSM-MX speakers bass notes are more palable and meaty, for lack of a better word. Voices are textured and alive, especially my favorite female singer, Alison Krause.I'm sure the pre is still breaking in after only five or six hours, but I'm impressed with the chages I'm hearing. Accompanying equipment is Esoteric X-03 SACD, Berning ZH-270 amp, Cardas GR ICs, and VH Airsine PCs.
Follow Ups:
i think the purist cable was also changed to cardas making the pre sound more complete and less thinned out at times.
great changes for me too!
have fun.

Thanx Bobby, makes perfect sense that Jud would've used Cardas wire. I tried a number of different power cords with the new Joule LA-150 Mk2:VH Audio Airsine, VH Audio Flavor 4, Silent Source Ref, Black Sand Violet Z1, Cardas Golden Cross, and Cardas Golden Reference.
The Cardas Golden Reference is the PC that brings out the best this Preamp has to offer IMHO. Oh, and great speakers by the way.
hi b,
a rule i follow is copper litz for line level signal pcs and larger gauge solid core copper like jps ac+, for power power amp pcs because of the voltage draw.
works nicely on joule, berning, cat and atmas for those of you interested.
