All the criticism notwithstanding, Lamm is clearly one of the most interesting amp builders out there, and IMO he is someone worth watching…

Unquestionably, and it is what I do - watching. However, here is where I have my extra “puss” on the subject.  If you read careful the following thread:

http://www.goodsoundclub.com/TreeItem.aspx?PostID=930

then you might sense that I personally feel that the industry affiliation is like cancer’s maltase – it destroys a person’s awareness regardless how serious a person take the industry rules in. The same feelings regarding Lamm I expressed in the Dedications Section the Milq’s release notes. So, for me, watching Lamm (and few other companies) is like observing a clinical study….

Pay attention; any manufacture in the history of audio (with no exception) after they introduces anything interesting always (always!!!) when down in their publicly available potency. It is how the industry maltase works. Would be the L1/M1.1/ML2.0 that Vladimir did in a specific period of his “industry disease” the best things that he did commercially? Without doubt whatever he did after do far did lead to very depressing but not unexpected conclusions. Will the new ML3 and his prospective L3 preamps something that set for Lamm a new horizon? No one knows it yet, I do not think ever Vladimir knows it yet.

Although the ML3 is an amp that comes to the consumers from the times when Kharma-type-sound and Magico-type-sound rules the market but I do sincerely hope that Lamm will be stubborn (and frankly speaking stupid enough) and will make something worthwhile. Unfortunate not one know it yet and at looks like the there is no framework within which the truth about ML3 will become known… Will see…
