I own a LS-03, the European version of LS-07, which has 2 seconds of pre-bu=
ffer.
One thing I noticed in the new LS-12 and LS-14 is the disappearance of the =
two lateral wheels, the headphone and recording volume controls, typical fo=
r LS-10, 11 and 5 models. At this point, we'll have for LS14 the same recor=
der as LS-07, but with a weight doubled. So, as John previously said, the d=
ifference will be the preamp quality: new work for Raimund?!
