Seeing this guidance system, I can't help but wonder if they used the same stupid steel tube sockets that Lamm used. Had "we" known then that "they" did, we could have slept peacefully at night, maybe spent more on arts, education and universal...

Sine I informed public about Melquiades amplifiers I receive many emails from people asking me about the operation points of 6C33C. For whatever reasons people mistakably took me for some kind of 6C33C guru, which is am not. Moreover I could be hardl...

Ah, such a beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful discovery!
After all, after the years of dealing and fighting with it I come up with the observation that the Vitavox S2 driver could and actually should be used “as is”. The harshness that I was re...

Dear Romy,
Thank you for the commentary and the advice with regards to the need to have a COGNITIVE ORDER OF SUCCESSION and to test with another speaker in situ first.
Given the varying degrees of how different individuals process COGNITI...

I kind of feel that I am way off in my familiarity about what is going on with new audio products. My horizon is very restricted with my own needs and with my own interests. I am irregularly read audio publications and irregularly visit some audio si...

Jessie,
I was trying to evaluate the gain of my amplification in respect to larger room and again was thinking about your case. I think something that you do it not correct. You are complaining that you have not enough gain in upperbass, but I...

Is he saying other (lesser) phono stages are class A/B? Better, perhaps, to claim "all SET gain path"?
Yes, output impedance is (oddly...) very high; but one supposes it will mate with the newer Lamm line stages. VL also mentions that this unit ...

[quote user="Paul S"] After a few minutes, I checked the amps with a (Fluke 189) DMM, just for drill. Voltage was set down to 175, but current was about 450 mA. Dialing down the pots, I could not get the current below 390 mA, even t...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] I don’t have a pair of Melquaid DSETs. I drive the horns with a pair of Lamm ML2s, running full range. I use a second pair of M1.1s for lower bass. The ML2s are hard to fault. In fact at this point, I can only find positi...

[quote user="Paul S"] I really would not know where to start with most of the crap out there, since most commercial SS sounds like it makes "music" by inhaling it. But I've heard "acceptable" units from those listed, albeit in some poor environ...

[quote user="Paul S"] If Lamm had actually used the larger 950s in my unit I would probably be less curious about it, but for mine he used 10uF 935 couplers with small 950s for bypass (... I assume they are bypass caps...). Hard to imagine 10 uF ...

Laurent,
The V2 in 6C33C does NOT need to be matched by other characteristic then gain and it is very easy to do. If you have two V2 tubes and they have different entry points for bias but the same gains then you will not detect any sonic cons...

[quote user="Paul S"] I heard back from Lamms about the relay pulses. They suggested I bias the amps again and then Lamms went silent when that didn't work. But the problem disappeared when I got around to replacing the 12AX7s that came w...

like the very idea of a remote control, for that subjugates the device to the

Looking at what's currently easily available, I was reminded once again how desparate the SS amp situation has become. Of the offerings I saw, I might consider (in no order of "preference") Halcro, Herron, Edge, Ayre, Lamm, or the Pass Ale...

Agree that it seems more people complain about grid power in US. Also agree that a "good" power supply is just that. Still, it seems like a good idea to have a good power supply as part of a "good" amp (or, whatever...). Some of the "best" amps I hav...

Thanks, floobydust.
There are a lot of interesting points in you post to consider. What speaker you drive with your 2A3? If they are relatively high sensitively (like compression drivers) then did you consider going with a single stage? I think I ha...

It is also possible that I'm reacting to a lack of true dedicated mid-bass. As previously mentioned, while the pair of 40Hz horns are under constructon, I co...
