Coincident vs Lamm

I currently own the Coincident, Frankenstein, 300b monoblock amps. In my system, they are by far the best I have ever heard and I've heard quite a few. I think once you live with a set amp of this caliber, you won't go back.
A friend has offered to sell me his Lamm 2.2 set amps at a really great price but I'd probably have to sell the Franks to do the deal. I have not heard the Lamm set amps so I really don't know how they compare. Does anyone here have experience with these amps?

The amps could get damaged in the shipping and at this guys house. I would not do this for my friend because then if something happens the friend may or may not take care of the damages.

Both FED EX and UPS have been known to refuse covering damage and if they do could take months. This guy could damage the amps taking them in and out of the boxes. I would not do this with something this expensive. I lent a component which happened to be a Timbre DAC to a friend. When he returned it to me the whole top cover of the dac was stained. I think his dog peed on it. This was black anodized over extruded aluminum cover. I was lucky in that the manufacturer had another cover to replace this. He did not want to buy it and I was never offered money for this incident.
