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?

You are right Charles. The opportunity will present itself once again. I really would have enjoyed the comparison but part of me is glad I didn't spend the money.

Thanks guys for your response. My friend lives in another state and is unwilling to ship them to me for a listen without a commitment. I understand his concern but to put out that kind of bucks without a listen...... I'm at an impass.
I could travel to where he lives but I would hear them in his system and not mine plus I'm not sure I can wrap my head around parting with the Franks.

After much thought, I finally called my friend to accept his offer. He did not hear back from me right away so he sold the amps to his nephew. Guess the Lamm's were not in the cards.
Thanks for all the well received thoughts from all you guys.
