Hm, I did not know that you use any Lamm electronics. In fact I just realized that I have absolutely no idea what any of the visitors of my site use for their playback.

Perhaps, as I understand whatever Lamm made so far was designed in one way or other by him back in Russia where relationship between money and creatively were way less screwed then in Western world (at least how is use to be). Some people attribute the outstanding artistic potential of Russian cinematographers during 1920s to the … very inadequate supply of Russian-made movie-shooting equipment. When in the begin of the 20-century Europe and America produced film equipment and shut films the Russians had no cameras, no film and instead of shooting they were THINKING how they will shot if they have the cameras and film. When the 1920s Russians got the Western film equipment they begin for a few years to do the things (artistically) that no one ever dreamed of.

Contrary to this a dedicated LF and HF ML3 would be able to drive virtually ANY loudspeaker. BTW, with 3 stages driving the GM70 into A2 it is possible to get out of LF channel almost 50W…

I have no reasons to question its sound at this time. I question it’s usability for the people who might like its sound. Regardless to price, getting one ML3 people will confine themselves for one single loudspeaker. Getting even a two pairs of ML3 people will be able to bi-amp but they will use for each of those channels fundamentally compromised amps because the very same ML3 with dedicated for a given bandwidth output stages will be way out there….
