[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...

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 ...

[quote user="steverino"]I made the mistake of clicking on the first link. It is a dangerous thing to try to parody Stereophile or TAS articles or writers. At least I think that was what the writer was attempting to do. If he was serious then he is wr...

[/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 ...

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...

It might be not directly related to the subject of this thread but I do feel that it has quite a good relatively. Are you laughing that your Lamm made his new amplifier with a price tag of $126K? Well, think again. Do you remember as the ...

[quote user="Gregm"]Actually, that could be a viable commercial product: a "stereo am"p allowing for four channels. One hi side, one low side, per channel.Any moron purchasing this could be stratosphrically happy flabbergasting his pals by "passively...

Again, a manufactures make a product, gave it to reviewer and the reviewer expressed nothing but indication of own idiocy.

The strangest (and most disappointing) thing I noticed is that this "review" is so threadbare that it pretty much boils down to a "testimonial". Could he have taken an easier path? Surely, along with calling the 2.2 "a worthy successor to the 2.0 a...

The Audio Fedirection guy got a new camera? I bet he did. Anyhow, the pictures are courtesy of Audio Fedirection blog.

As I said above - I was as queries to have a preview of that ML3 amp as I was wonder...
|

I don't have a problem with what Lamm has done in offering the ML3 (ignoring the price)... If I have a problem it is more related to how the product is being represented. Representations aside, depending on how it sounds, the ML3 could well be a prod...

[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="Gregm"]It doesn't seem prudent to look at the speaker without considering the amplifier at all. We would be designing a speaker that would work with a theoretical amp -- but not one that's available.[/quote]
You are right but the opposi...

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 ...

..... 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 ...

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...

Well, I can not refuse myself in pleasure to post a picture (by Gismodo) of the $98K Mandarin Supreme speaker. BTW, how did they sound? BTW, as I understand our friend Lamm was smart and he put his ML3 on silent display in order do not demonstrate “h...

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...

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...

I have to say, I never gave it much thought, since, as you say, The Book says 5751s are an OK sub for 12AX7. I did realize that the gain was lower, but I obviously had a brain cramp in not interpolating the lower gain to "redistributed" global ...

Here are a few comments by Mike of Audio Federation about his exposure to new Lamm ML3 amp:

Well, there is not really blame in the situation as anyone has good and honorable intentions. Wilson does what they do and Aleksandra might be not your type of speakers but the larges Wilsons do have own charm and charisma. I would argue that 85% of ...

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

[quote user="anthony"]Macondo is no magic bullet. Sure, Macondo/DSET is put together in a way that it's components need for optimal operation, and when "used as directed" the performance is phenomonal, but it is still prone to room integration and p...

Sure, Mike, however what I learned with my living experience that that is nothing really valuable in life that is expansive. Anyhow, Mike, thanks for the pictures. BTW, some of them are very nice, very-very nice phonographically.

Romy, I think I didn't explain myself very well. I was agreeing with you, and still do. I posted the Chris Widmer link to show that the same fanaticism is going on, but even more so, from the thread two years ago which you posted th...
