| Lamm ml2's amps with coaxial speakers 97db 16ohm The 97db at 16ohm spec will be a great match for the ML2's and likely a better fit than 89db at 8 ohm. Of course all depends on the speaker and listening volume you require. With my ML2's I am using Reimer Teton's at 95db and 4 ohm and the amps co... | |
| front ported speakers with ribbon tweeters? All Reimer speakers are front ported and have ribbon tweeters. | |
| Speakers placed against back wall The Guru QM10 speakers are designed to be placed up against the wall. I heard them at RMAF and they sound great. Audio Note would be another good option. | |
| Front ported speakers recommendation I heard the Guru QM10 speakers at RMAF which are around $2,000 and was blown away at how good they sound. The bass was surprisingly good given their small size and they are designed to be placed near a wall. | |
| Tube preamp suggestions. I agree with with several others here that the Lamm LL2 deluxe would be a great fit based on your priorities. I replaced a Hovland HP100 with the Lamm due to the improved bass weight and more realistic mids. It does not have the last word in resol... | |
| Could use some help, please Dave, I picked up a pair of Athena - Audition B1.2 monitor speakers new on sale at Music Direct for $120.00. These speakers perform way above their low price. I have seen these come up on Audiogon as low as around $60 per pair. There are some on-l... | |
| Speaker recommendations specifically for Lamm ML2 Streetdaddy, sounds like fun. Lets work something out in the next few weeks. | |
| Speaker recommendations specifically for Lamm ML2 I am using Reimer Tetons on my ML2's but in a much larger room. In a smaller room I would lean towards a 2-way speaker. Of course there are many out there such as the Kharma mentioned above. I am personally intrigued by the Audio Note speakers whi... | |
| How to tell if lp is recorded with phase reversed? FYI, Silent Running Audio has an Absolute Phase chart that you can download which lists the recording labels that had a tendency towards recording in phase vs inverting. This is just a guideline but may be helpful. | |
| Lamm ML2 power cords and tube rolling I am using Silent Source Hi Current power cords from Walker Audio with good results. In the 12AX7 position I am using a Raytheon black plate O getter which I found better than the Tele smooth plate. The Tele had a nice midrange but was light on th... | |
| Efficient Dynamic Speaker with low-end punch? I second the Reimer line. The bass on these go very deep and clean. My 18 tube watts matches well with the Teton's. | |
| Lamm ML2 - ML2.1 I own a pair of the later ML2's which have the brass binding posts. I have not heard the ML2.1 but really like my ML2's. I think the main difference is supposed to be that they had to find a new source for the custom made transformers as they were... | |
| Need advice for full range speaker with bottom end You may want to check into one of Rick Reimers speakers. The Wind Rivers or Tetons would get you the deep tight bass you are looking for and will work well with your 25 watts SET. I am using 18 watt SET with the Teton's and have plenty of power to... | |
| High eff speakers? Sonata III, Super III, OR ??? I have the Reimer Tetons and am using Lamm ML2 amps with 18 watts. The combination sounds very good. The impedence curve is very flat so it doesn't give my amps any problems. | |
| Nashville TN I recently moved into the Nashville area from Colorado. There I was part of the Colorado Audio Society. Since relocating to Nashville I miss getting together with other audiophiles. Maybe we can put together the first ever Nashville Audio Society ... |
