What preamp for Lamm M1.2 ?

I was thinkung about getting the ARC Ref 3, but I din't noticed that Lamms have an awfull lot of gain - 32dB. I was told that the Ref 3 will not work well with Lamms because of that.

I know that the logical step is to get the Lamm preamp but beeing as lazy as I am, I want something withe a remote (not to mention SINGLE volume knob).

Any thoughts ?

I've had the Lamm M1.2's with Wilson Maxx 3. The ARC ref 3 and 5 sounded SHRILL! Stay away. I strongly recommend the Aesthetix Callisto Eclipse. Pricey but fantastic.

I clearly liked the Mac C500T better than than the Ref 3. The C 2300 sounded almost as good.
The luxman c800f was better than either Mac. The Aesthetix is perfect.
