I have a wp7 and also own the hybrid ss/tube lamm 2.2 mono amplifiers.
I previously ran the wp7 with rowland 302 solid state stereo amplifier.
The Lamm's easily best the rowland when it comes to capturing the emotion and feeling of music. The lamm can also have as much bass slam as the rowland if you get cables that match amp/speaker combination well. I had my lamms with nordost valhalla and then switched to purist dominus interconnect between amp and speaker. The nordost did not provide enough down low bass with the lamm. The purist definitely does.
I have not tried the 1.2 lamm mono amps but have generally heard great things. My undestanding that you get a little more presence in vocals than on the 2.2. However, I have also heard that if you truly want to rock out to modern music that some have found it lacks all the punch you might want. The 1.2 and 2.2 are probably 2/3 the same amplifier. The 2.2 is 220 watts but 41 watts in class A. While the 1.2 is 110 watts but all class A.
So I would say try to listen to both but if you listen to a lot of rock than probably the 2.2. It never hurts to have extra power and the 2.2 is so damn good with vocals already.
