OK, would you say the weak link would then be:
1) Just the topology of Lamhorn (single driver with back-loaded horn appendix)
2) Any single driver back-loaded loudspeaker in general
3) Or any single driver loudspeaker in general

Or perhaps a better question could be:
Are there single driver speakers/topologies out there that would do justice to what the Lamm 2.0 is able to deliver?
(if so, could the AER MD3B be the driver in a such a loudspeaker?)
Thanks for the feedback.

Good question, HookEm. I would say my answer would be 2, “Any single driver back-loaded loudspeaker in general”. Do not get me wrong, driving your, or any other single drivers would do fine by ML2.0 and you will be able to feel the difference between this Lamm and most of other SETs, still in my mind the fundamental flows of the back-loaded single drivers will shine though with any other amps and with Lamms in particularly. It does not mean that it would not allow you to enjoy what you will be getting but my detaste of the back-loaded single drivers is well known, so here it went. In context of your original question and my feeling that it was irrelevant: let me to rephrase what I said. What you ask was irrelevant as (and it is very much in my view) the sonic problems deriving from mismatching SETs and loudspeakers are way under the radars of the sonic problems deriving from the back-loaded single driver topology.
