I see now. Quad can’t be driven by single 6C33C. This is well know fact and I did a lot of experiments with Quads and Lamm ML-2.0. For whatever reason as ML-2.0 drives Quads it produces Stingy Sound. I can’t explain it but it is not the sound that ML...

I think I have too much time on my hands or use my time in highly stupid fashion but I decided to do today the experiment about witch I was thinking for a while. The experiment was “methodology clean” and lead me to quite interesting discoveries. Sin...

Still, I would like in this thread to stay with subject of advantage/disadvantage of DSET approach vs. better/expensive SET: "A DSET is better then an expensive SET" instead of turn it into thread about David Berning. Bernings certainly might be...

[quote user="HookEm"]OK, would you say the weak link would then be:1) Just the topology of Lamhorn (single driver with back-loaded horn appendix)2) Any single driver back-loaded loudspeaker in general3) Or any single driver loudspeaker in generalOr p...

Robert Harley made a review of Lamm ML2.2 with his Magico Q7 loudspeaker of 94dB sensitivity.

He feels that “Q7 allows to hear ML2.2 at it’s best”, and the fac...

Lamm has been talking about his GM70-based amp for many years, buttering the subscribing to his speeches public. I do not know what the status in there but I would not expect anything relatively interesting. There are many objective reasons why I do ...

I do not blame John Atkinson specifically. He is not better or worse than any other his idiot-colleges. Take a look the level of the moronity this time John Atkinson allows himself to fell. In his “review” of Lamm M2.1:

[quote user="Paul S"]Yes, Bud, I agree that the most common problem for the full-tilt regenerators is that they begin to exhibit various problems in direct proportion to current demands. And this seems to be true even when they are used "below capac...

[quote user="morricab"] You are also right that to get everything you want from an output transformer requires a VERY expensive construction and top materials. However; even an expensive transformer is no guarantee of success. [/quote]

It is even hard to critique because it is beyond of being ignorant of stupid. The John E. Johnson’s review of Lamm L2 preamp in the “Secrets of Home Theater and High Fidelity”. Below are the fragments of the John E. Johnson’s pearls… Each quoted stat...

Well, have a good time, Stitch. Generally as far as I know Lamm equipment not modified a lot. When I own Lamms I make some minor changes that were not modifications but rather accommodations to the needs of my particular playback.
I would say that ...

Perhaps you are right. Buying out tubes from manufacture is a secure way to go. Still, I abandoned this practice in 2002 when Lamm sold me a pair of 12AX3 for his L2. When I got them one of the tubes was with paces of metal riddling inside. I figure ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Oh, David, come on! Can you for a second to stop to be a pretentious been counter and look at the picture from slightly more elevated perspective? I am glad that you do not worship the expensive parts, unique design, and pr...

Potentiometers:

... How good are these pots? Do they actually have "stops", where they won't turn any further? Again, I ask because it...

Last few days listening MiniMe with B-2 my patients was running out. With all more or less OK sound my B-2 had wondering eye about imaging. The amp has a minor fluctuation of gain between the channels and this fluctuation can be addressed by …kic...

People, keep asking me about the sound of Melquíades and I feel strange as I really can’t not explain how it sounds. It does not make any sense as I initiated this thread with the objective to explain or at least to inform about the Melquíades’ sound...

Stitch, even though you are not wrong what you say but I do
not think it has a direct relation to what I call the "worse". My angle
was different: the demise of SET concept if the amp increases some rational cost
level. The cost of LAMM electronic...

Here is the link:http://www.rank-concept.deI have no experience with the Lamm ML-series, I just listened to an M-series hybrid amp combined with the Watt/Puppy 8. This performance was a single fake (though a pleasant one). I can´t say where was the f...

I have heard Lamm ML2's in a couple of different people's home systems. Did they know how to use them properly? Well either they didn't (quite possible) or the amplifiers simply lacked the virtues I would prefer.Tommy Horning is the guy who makes tho...

I think ML amps have an input capacitor put there to isolate from the other components, I have a close friend who has multiamped for a long time with ML 20.6 monos, he had once 6 monos on his system, he now uses only one pair with the input cap red...

Surely the psychology here goes deeper. Lamm does not like the very idea of a remote control, for that subjugates the device to the user. Each installation is for him an altar to his irreplaceable godhead, worshipers must come to it in prayer, not ...

[quote user="Paul S"] It took ~3 1/2 hours for the system to charge up and start working as a system again, and then I tried Romy's suggestion to try dropping current (and raising vlotage) on the ML2s. I experimented again and stuck with the 16...

[quote user="Merlin"] Indeed the linearity of the Berning in comparison with the Lamm is quite remarkable, and indeed could be disconcerting to an inexperienced listener brought up on large increases on 2nd harmonic at the bottom end. [/quote]

Hato, I do not what to caps on your little celebration, and to play with old Lamm 2.0 is a pure celebration, but I would like to pass two observations. The ML2.0 with Avantgarde Duo will work fine BUT will be a weak element. I do not want to critici...

Lots has been written already about tube replacement, but I want to mention my recent experience when replacing the 6C33C output tubes (V2). I had the previous tubes in for only about 1 year; in this case I estimate about 300 hours, althou...
