Lamm M1.1 hybrid comparisons to tube amps


I would like to hear from anyone that has experience comparing these amps to other high quality tube amps such as Lamm's own ML1. It is my understanding that these amps are supposed to have a very tube like quality but with the advantages of solid state.

I loved my Lamm M1.1s,but decided to go all solidstate with the In-Sound/Omega Mikro V amps.I have and am listening to the 10 w/ch prototype.It is out-performing the 1.1s.The V amp monos are 18w/ch :$7500.This may not be enough power depending on the speakers'impedance/efficiency.
If tubed are your cup of tea,try the VIVAs or VAC Standard 220s.I would opt out on the ML-1s,reports of amp fires have occured.The M1.1s hold their sonic character regardless of load.My only complaint is that the top-end is slightly laidback.
Reprince,one unit in CA. and one in TX.One smoked its' self in NY.Amps needed to be replaced with new units.Sorry for the delay in responding/My bad.
