How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
I got 2 matched pairs of WE 417A from audiotubes.com and replaced Raytheon tubes with these. It has been only a few hours so far but I am impressed. Brent Jessee of audiotubes told me that they were all low microphonics. Lamm LP2 is certainly a lo... 
Which Lamm Amp for USHER BE-10
I am using M2.2 with Be-20. I am not sure about Be-10 but I heard Be-20 with Lamm ML2.1. I think it really depends on how big your room is and what type of music you listen to. With ML2.1, vocal music, small acoustic band sounds great. However, ML... 
lamm lp2 loading question
My understanding is that Lamm has 1:10 SUT inside so its natural impedance would be around 400 ohms. So unless Lamm adds loading resistor or something, 400 ohms would be more likely than 40, I would guess. I am still a bit confusing about SUT and ... 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Lula, I only use Fosgate MM input with my SUT so far. I think Fosgate has more neutral presentation, a little less tube sound, if you like. Lamm has richer, thicker tone, a bit wider soundstage and more detail overall. The difference is not night ... 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Lewn, thanks for your comment. I know that some people on A'gon here keep complaining about VPI arm and it is difficult to really compare it to other arms. Since my Reed tonearm will arrive a few months before turntable, that's why I want to get t... 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Blue_nose, I am not quite sure I understand you completely. Which 2 mediocre tables would that be, that I own?I am in a process of upgrading all sorts of things which I already mentioned previously. For now I have one VPI Classic which will be rep... 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Syntax, would you mind telling me what SUT you had Lamm installed in your LP2? I assume that Kondo KSK SFz did not make you cry means that it was SUT that you actually like? (not including the internal SUT that Lamm replaced for you). Eventually I... 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Quick question on tubes in LP2. Beside Western Electric 417A, is Amperex 5842 a worthwhile upgrade over stock Raytheon tube or should I not bother with that and go with WE 417A?Thanks for your advise 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Syntax, yes, I realized that the gain will be different between the MC input and MM/Ortofon. For now, gain is not an issue for me as I certainly has enough volume with Lamm MC input. While I did not level match both input when I listened, I tried ... 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Well, I tried Ortofon T100 today with Lamm MM input. The sound is richer, more saturated, bigger than with Lamm MC input. I thought Janzen is supposed to be very good as well but I do prefer Ortofon T100. Hmmmm..I wonder if Lamm is willing to make... 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Thuchan, right now the only SUT I have on hand is an Ortofon T100 which works very well with Air Tight when I used it with other phono pre that I have. I will try it out and compare to Lamm MC input. However, I have no idea, in comparison to other... 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Thanks all for comment. I now am auditioning LP2 in my system. Although the unit has not been used in awhile, after a few hours, it is already quite impressive. With my Air Tight cartridge, at 0.4mV, there is no problem using MC input at all, volu...

Thanks for the information. I will be in Hong Kong later on this year and will check out Audio Note Kondo there. 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Thuchan, one more quick question on Audio Note Kondo SUT. Looking at Audio Note Kondo site, it does not really say anything much about the SUT nor any information such as turning ratio etc. I also looked on Agon and ebay and found Audio Note Kondo... 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Thuchan, I definitely am planning on trying different tubes LP2 and will use external SUT for sure.I will most likely end up with 2 different turntables but kind of unintentionally. I am currently using VPI Classic with full upgrades. That will so...
