I have noticed that the Studio 26 USB indicates that it uses XMAX-L preamps... This is the only place I have been able to find XMAX-L versions... All other devices simply say XMAX Class A or similar... What are XMAX-L preamps and what does the "L" stand for?

As far as I could make it out, these are a kind of XMAX preamps which are optimized for USB powering, as studio 26

can be powered only from usb port. But I don't know if it affects preamp quality.
