Your choice for SET amp?


If you could choose Von Schweikert DB99 with the ribbon tweeter upgrade or Avantgarde Duo 3.1 for the same price to mate with a pair of Lamm ML2 which one would you take.

I am looking for the right speakers in my system which is EMM Labs front end and Lamm ML2. Any advice or first hand experience would be great....Thanks

I did not know that Lamm's are SET. I should have guessed because they sound so damn good!

Duo's sound has disappointed me at shows, but of course show situations are notorious for uneven sound quality. (Some of my favorite speakers have been unlistenable at shows.) Are the Duo's particular about location in a room, or certain qualities of the setup?

I remember that they (Avantguarde?) have a showroom some place in lower Manhattan. Someone clue me in as to location and I'll try to visit next time I'm in New York.

Thanks!
