Bring Music to Life

Linear Tube Audio is a high-fidelity audio manufacturing company on a mission to bring music to life.

Our amplifiers provide unparalleled accuracy and realism, putting you "in the room" of the original performance.

The heart of all LTA amplifiers is the the patented Berning ZOTL technology. Sonically, this delivers the best of both worlds: tube tone and solid state detail.

Each unit is expertly built by hand in the United States.

We are proud to offer the full line of DACs by MHDT Lab. + These tube-driven, non over-sampling, no digital filter, no op-amp, no feedback structured DACs produce natural, realistic sound. + Click link in bio to learn all about these fantastic DACs. + #audiophile #dac #digitalaudio #hifi #highendaudio #tube #vacuumtube
David Berning personally inspects all our amplifiers before we go into full-scale production.

It’s cool and breezy in Washington, DC today. A perfect spring morning, and a perfect complement to jazz and coffee. 🎹 ☕️ 😎 + What are you listening to this morning? + #bringmusictolife #jazz #music #dc #spring #coffee #audiophile
Handmade products require handmade testing equipment. Here’s a switch/load box we made in-house to help us burn in and compare our amps to make sure they sound _just_ right before heading out to customers. + #audiophile #amplifiers #stereo #zotl #2channel #highendaudio #hifi #audio #madeindc #madeinusa🇺🇸 #madeinamerica #manufacturing #handmade #behindthescenes

Spring in Chicago... Wishing everyone at #AXPONA safe travels, however delayed those travels may be. + The LTA crew is making the best of our canceled Sunday flights by going to see @patriciabarbermusic on Monday night. + Not to mention the seriously productive post-show conversations we never would’ve had if Mother Nature hadn’t taken charge. Some seriously good things are in the works.
