Paul,
The idea of the not threaded forum is good that it is always there is opportunity to go back to all there and update own views, or to extend them. In many moths/years when the ML2 stop be a novelty for you, you might return to this thered and ...

[quote user="Paul S"]I got new 6C33Cs for V2s from Lamm because no one else wants to match them, let alone match them for gain…[/quote]
There is no meaningful mutual conductance or bias matching for 6C33Cs (in context of ML2) besides gain matching, ...

[quote user="Paul S"] Speakers: I built a version of Dick Olsher's 3-way Diamond Edition BassZilla (hard to find at www.blackdahlia.com), and I tricked it out considerably from his mule. Bass is BR, 15" Audax P380MR, which is a nice semi-...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] "Short the ML2’s inputs and the hiss should be gone"
I assume it is not a mistake, and that you mean short the unused input on each POWER AMP (as opposed to the PREAMP).
(I am currently using the XLR connections becau...

In his RMAF the Federated Mike post some comments about his use of ML3:

Even though his comments from my point of view have “issuers” but Mike’s comments sti...

One more thing that I would like to point out in context of the recent Marc Mickelson’s review. Marc wrote:
“The Atma-Sphere amps are certainly more powerful than the ML3 Signatures, but not noticeably so unless you clip the Lamm amps. “
Here is wh...

[quote user="guy sergeant"] I have not drawn any conclusions about how this amplifier might sound. I cannot imagine how the input stage you use will behave and how that will impact on what the 6C33 does. As I've said previously the Lamm amplifiers us...

[quote user="Paul S"]Yesterday a nice fellow drove off with "my" Lamm ML2s. Now it is really sinking in: How will will I find anything else this good, along with more power?These amps were like a PhD in sound, what might be done with hi-fi. Yes, I ...

I've heard so much about these legendary SET mono-blocks; but as I understand it, it's VERY important to match them up with proper (efficient) speakers.Anyway, I'd welcome some feedback on matching these amps with Lamhorn 1.8's + AER MD3B drivers (~1...

I listened to those some time ago. It was a full Lamm combo with ML3 + LP2 paired with Wilson Alexandria. This Doc from the WBF Forum never missed a second to tell the world how super this combination is. Above the holy grail. I found an owner with s...

[quote user="Paul S"]So, does anyone know anything about "good" sockets for the ML-2s? I forget when and where I saw some sort of boutique Teflon jobbies that are pretty darned expensive. Maybe DIY Hi-Fi, in Hong Kong? Also, although Teflon is a ...

A site visitor sent me a link to Oneobgyn playback at Audiogone as Oneobgyn uses Lamm LL1.

I did glance over the Mickelson’s articles and it amasses me to what level of arrogance those reviewing people are able to descent. The whole article is so remarkably about nothing that I even surprised that Lamm signed it off. (All “reviews” that th...

I think I need to make some commentary in here as BS will be swallowed as usually and somebody shall take stand on it. Before is a small prelude. Sometimes back in his comments about RMAF 2010 Show Report the Federated Mike wrote in his blog:

Ethan,
Since I published the article “Preamplifiers: keys to mystery” I received many emails from my site visitors asking about Lamm prams and questioning my remarks in comparing what I said to “data form other sources”. Some people disagreed or sur...

I have recently acquired a pair of (2000 vintage, I think) Lamm ML2s and would like to share impressions and development strategies with other ML2 owners, including former owners, and perhaps I may learn from any pertinent experience.
In addition to...

There are no relays in the ML2 that might produce the “violent switch-on pulse… which threatens to blow your speaker”. What you have is a dead V2 tube. When 6C33C dies then it begging to produce the erratic pings. Juts replace the tube and you should...

|
Be careful with those 5751. ML2 became unstable with 6db more or less (I do not remember already) global feedback. Lamm told me a long and big story how critical for ML2 to have the global feedback of exact amount and how “properly” the feedback is i...

Romy,you seem to ascribe very much of your LP playbacks success to the Expressive Tech SU-2 superiority, maybe 50% from my own guess,so it must be a very nice step-up, you are one of the few that has any experience with it. There is one forum member ...

Marc Mickelson published his new infomercial
about Lamm LP1 phonostage. I do not use Lamm products
but as former Lamm product user I naturally keep looking what Lamm does. http://www.theaudiobeat.com/equipment/lamm_lp1_signature.htm
I did not rea...

I don't have Lamm, but I think conceptually there is no real difference between imaging the location of the players and imaging their non location. Sound waves generated by the musicians are traveling in the space between them and even if it weren't ...

[quote user="k100"] If I were to try to find a pair of ML2's that are older production, what years of production does this include? [/quote]
All ML2.1 are the new version of ML2 and they are not good as ML2. However, I have seen the original ML2 mar...

Tommy,
I would not characterize myself as “die hard” anyone and if I would then my selections in audio would hardly relate to my alleged “die hard” inclinations.
Lamm’s stuff is perfectly fine – as good as it could be, within the scope of Lamm’s o...

Hi Romy, I've read several of your posts on audio asylum where you indicate the L2 is far to superior to the L1. More recently on this site you wrote, "the X-factor of L1 (the ancestor of L2, that BTW was way better preamp from many perspec...

Romy,
I believe that congratulations are in order for the
great threads on Audiogon sewer; the Lamm LP2 and WE417A tubes and Wavac 805 vs Lamm ML2.1.
I for one appreciate your input and sense of humor. YOU ROCK!
Take care, Tommy...

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...
