[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]I should mention that with all the wonderful things it does, the L2 (preamp) definitely deserves a fresh pair of 12AX3s and a 6C19P. (I have not changed them since starting work on the horns... all tubes are exactly one ye...

[quote user="Paul S"]Aparently, a few people complained back to Ken Chait that his "carefully-matched" (with an adaptor on his Amplitrex AT-1000 machine, i presume) pairs either weren't matched to begin with, or they did not stay matched. Anyway...
|
[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...

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 precession of construction of...

[quote user="KOTriode"] On dynamic, the 6C33C tube showed its ability to go deep in the bass on Ray Brown trio recording of Soular Energy which is excellent for a 15W SE , the 845 amp can do better, but not by much, but probably because of its 25W ou...
|
[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]I could not agree more. Above a certain price point, another thing that should be standard procedure is what Lamm has been doing since day one; and that is to establish a file for each component made, recording whenever p...

A Federated Mike started his new venture ultimist.com, the portal where he feel people would like to go to do “purchase research”. Those poor audio dealers do not get that someone might have interests in audio outside the brands, shopping and nee...

[/quote] I visited Lamm web site and read his page with CES report.

Behind the “expected” comment form a few industry revisers there is something that I did ...

Wojtek, since you have invoked me by name, I will respond directly to associated remarks, while Greg and Romy have answered to other points as well as I might have done.I believe I have mentioned that I have been at hi-fi fairly seriou...

Actually I was wondering what the hell you were talking about what you were bitching that the ML2 socket can not handle 6N6P first. Ether you changed over 10.000 tubes in there or something else was wrong because the ML2 sockets are fine (except the ...
|
Hello Romy,I am no power expert but here are my observations on your situation.Even though a PS Audio and others create a perfect AC sine wave this does not seem to be the answer, even for low draw front end components. It seems that some type of&nbs...
|
..... he he :-)Seriously, I listened some months ago to the LL1 sig. /ML3/Alexandria combination. A perfect example for an expensive mismatch. These Wilson Speakers are a grave for those amps, midrange is ok, but no high frequency area and absolutely...
|
[quote user="Saturntube"]Well this is the RCA LC-9A It is identical, with an extra cabinet for an 18" driver... We saw some old time reviewers going out of the room laughing and shaking their heads! We thought they were saying, yes a 50 year ...
|
It does not sound right to me. If I am not mistaken then it has 2 X2uF caps. What 10uF coupling cap can do there and what 1000V cap does in ML2. The 1000V cap is almost $6 more expensive – Lamm would kill himself but would never allow such a waste of...

Hi,I'm new to "Romy the Cat's Home Page," was impressed when I read a thread comparison of the Lamm L1/L2 linestage, which prompted me to post here. While I'm not an electronic's wizard (gift is mechanical), audio has been part of my life, dating bac...
|
Sorry, Bernard, you are probably correct about the spelling, but it's too late for me to edit the post. I always figure anything good one hears at a show means it is possible to get good sound from the gear in question, while bad sound might say com...
|
Gordan, I think you are missing the accent of what I meant to say. The Class A or not is not important for compression drivers and the S3 in particularly. I mean it is important and it much be ONLY class A but I do not see any SS amps switching in cl...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I found that this overly zealous, stupid and absolutely unnecessary protectionism is very typical in audio and THAT is what I am agaist...Rakesh, I am sorry but you are even further running out of your mind with your theori...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] It did not last long….
Just a couple days back I was thinking that I will live with my current lower bass for a while and now I feel that I will not. I do not feel that my current ULF is wrong. In fact I feel that ...
|
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...
|
Brad, I heard a KR years ago, only remember it was not the typical "no-feedback sound", which I think of as clear but flaccid and no push. I agree that "feedback" can eventually ruin bass, and more, as I mentioned earlier in connectio...
|
The Lamm ML3 made me to think about this subject. Since my negative expectations about the ML3’s Class A2 operation turned out to be wrong and since we go into expense and efforts (totally unnecessary in my view as DSET make it worthless) and m...
|
Yes, the GM70 is very much unknown to most of us, especially in its "pushed"/HV version, and it is not likely to be properly explored by the average DIYer, either. Lamm did choose to use some of the driving ideas from his proven SET amp, but it ...

HookEm, I could only advised you on methodological aspect as I do not extend any recommendations about purchasing decisions. The 17x15 x11 is a very large room for a single driver speaker. If you insist to use a single driver speaker then get whatev...

Your comment about reviews today is a simple Product Placement is spot on, I kind of even envy that I was not the one who said it. Regarding the rest. It will be VERY interesting if you heard the ML2.0. When I heard both multiple times between the ...

The AI is generally a bogus term, purely marketing term. AI is a term from the same family as the term “synergy”. I do not like AI and I usually use “behavioral patterns”. The behavioral patterns are specific and defined; they are not a generic BS th...

Romy's recent post on the trials of 12-channel DSET hi-fi made me feel a little better, but his point about maintaining performance is well taken, none the less. One simply must have an aural reference and some rigorous methods for keeping things son...
|
So, finally, here is the answer to my speculative question, up at the top of the page. It certainly looks like Stereophile got the news quite a while ago, all right, in time to drop the ML2.1 from and incorporate the first public news of its dis...
