Lamm or Edge solid state ?

I own a Lamm M1.1 but I have heard the Edge monoblocks. I find the Lamms to be more musical, and in fact a bit tubey--not the traditional tubey sound--and both dynamic and delicate. The Edge does have a better grip because of the extra juice.

Thank you guys, I currently use Kharma Exquisite 1D with Lamm ML1, I am thinking to have a secondary solidstate amp for my speakers.

We are both Lamm and Edge dealers. Our reccomendation would be to bi-amp with two pairs of Lamm M1.1 monoblocks (like that heard with the Kharma Exquisites to good effect at CES 2002) or to use Edge Signature Monoblocks. Both of these configurations will deliver a completely fantasic, out of this world performance - and coincidentally they are approximately the same price.

i agree with all these pro-Lamm and Edge amp comments. both these excellent amps have been my favorite ss amps.

one additional alternative would be to bi-amp with 2 new hybrid stereo Tenor amps. you would have one stereo hybrid on each side. my experience with Tenors and Kharmas would lead me to expect great things from this approach.

i have ordered the new 300 watt hybrid Tenors for my Exquisites but have recently considered bi-amping instead......my biggest problem would then be to buy another set of Transparent Opus MM speaker cables....$29k additional (as much as the 300 watt Tenor monoblocks).

just a thought.
