Audio people frequently go astray in their thinking and actions and this creates a good breeding ground for all possible audio sale opportunists. I would like to explore one moment that has not a lot of public attention and to look at the moment slig...

When I read raves from low powered amps with such speaker designs I ask myself, is it product placement or is there a different kind of listening among Americans, Japanese, Europeans...?
I made a visit to an audiophile with Lamm LL1, ML3 and Wilson ...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Yes yes yes .... Lamm Industries is a BUSINESS... This is abundantly clear whenever I order tubes from them! [/quote]
Hm, I did not know that you use any Lamm electronics. In fact I just realized that I have absolu...

No-one is criticising the ML3 (amplification) product. We are discussing the concept and the applicability of such products, i.e. the ultimate limitation of an amplifier called upon to work from DC to daylight and, accordingly, drive a loud...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]... mostly idiots and Lamm cronies...The caT[/quote]I am guilty. I own ML2.1 :-) But modified. And I use it with a 99dB Speaker....I listened to these ML3 amps for a longer time, owner System, no demo. The problem in gene...

Well, Jessie, I think you're exercising a wishful thinking but you have, I think, a wrong subject for your thinking. Neither Lamm nor any other high-end manufacture care about result as a concept but rather a result as product. A product b...

Paul hear the Lamm amp's was one of my interests at CES. The only way to come to a verdict abought the ml3would have been If there were the possibility to switch from one amp to the other, and then compare. At lea...

Of course this is basically propaganda. Who argues otherwise? However, I have found that it is possible at times to glean a modicum of useful information from "reviews" like this via a careful reading of what is said and somtimes via...

What I hate usually and in audio in particularly is the situation when a professional know that s/he is able to deliver a satisfactory resale and s/he subordinate and enslave everything to this believe. Pretend you are have a house with a single ...

Robert,
I think you completely misunderstood my comment and my complain about the high price of the Feastrex drivers. Chris Widmer does not understand it as well not to mention that his attempt to explain the high price of Feastrex sound too b...

Since I promoted the Cessaro Gamma to be a contender for the most promising commercial loudspeaker I would like to pass a few critical co...

I was thinking about the subject for a long time. People in audio love to make generalization, so do I, but in it is not so simple. People attribute to output tubes some “special” qualities but I more interested not about unnecessary drooling about A...

The last nigh we went to book store – the wify wanted to buy UK traveling guide and I glanced the September Stereophile magazine. It had two interesting artless – Art Dudley look like publicly was loosing his virginity about horns and Mike Framer had...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Because GM70 can work in A2 class the ML3 has a very powerful high current-capable second stage (I do not know it they are 4 parallel 6H30 of some kind of composite follower) to be able to handle the GM70’s grid current.[/q...

Only that a higher price may allow the constructor to get away fm the annoyingly ubiquitous "made to meet a price point" and push his design to his limits...Romy notes:[quote]I approach to the subject from a perspective of the OPPORTUNITIES THAT ML3 ...

Well, it says something that you had a chance to stay listen to "the best amplifier in the world" and yet you walked out. Although it does not tell us what you heard it does seem to reflect on the set-up, at least, and so, if only indirectly, o...
|

Romy, at some point you did mention lowering current and shortly thereafter, if not in the same post, you added something to the effect of raising voltage. You even mentioned values you have tried, and I printed it out. But since I am usu...

Sorry, Romy, I'm just bagging on you a little for caring/staying conected to Lamm...I hope you understand that I absolutely agree with your ideas about the "right" direction to go for the next viable step in audio *for those with the stones*. &n...

[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="Paul S"]He did note that the ML2.2 uses a different OPT, and also that it uses "less feedback" than the ML2.1 … I wonder what this means, "less feedback"? Why would Lamm mess with that very effective scheme? Does he just shunt some vo...

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...

Romy says:[quote]The problem is that in context of those amplifiers the COST BECOMES THE MAJOR DESIGN IMPEDIMENT[/quote]Yes, but it shouldn't -- should it?Let's be reasonable (a tall order). Either a designer knows how to design or not. If he doesn;t...

I kind of less care about Lamm or about his new amps but rather I am interested using the example of ML3 to see what the DHT tubes are capable off. There are some people who worship direct-heated tubes and attribute to them some ventures (like ...

Regarding Mike's observations: Indeed, there might be more There there than he intended.He might have said anything at all, but he seemed to get stuck on the "micro-management" issue.Sound familiar?Who would be surprised if the ML3 turned out to...

An interesting as a very a smart move for Lamm: to kill the ML2.1 and to introduce the new Lamm 2.2. I wonder that fact...

[quote user="Paul S"]All the criticism notwithstanding, Lamm is clearly one of the most interesting amp builders out there, and IMO he is someone worth watching… [/quote]
Unquestionably, and it is what I do - watching. However, here is where I have ...

I do now Art Dudley and I generally have difficult time to read about the reviewers "associated equipment". Surely it helps to understand what they use in order to project this views but those morons have dose dozens lines to enumerate the multiple b...

I listened to exactly that combination for a longer time (Wilson Alexandria + ML3...) and the "review" (let's replace it with product placement) is the same joke than Harley with ML2.2 linked with the Magico Speakers (simply THE mismatch)....

"The Truth is in absence of conviction."Yes!I know nothing, and freely admit it, and thereby experience 'what is'.[Well, one can try, anyway].Not sure if you saw it, but I put up more pictures of the ML3. I have a few more, but these are the best of ...
