[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I always was “concerned” about those large high voltage triodes: 211, 845, GM70…. They kind of different… The 845 always was brutal and not elegant, 210 was elegant but not sophisticated, and the GM70 was sophisticate...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]The re-charged cap works fine but changing the cap polarity by re-recharging is while it handles the signal is not a very good idea in my view. All that dialectic in the cap needs to be re-polarized – it sound too unattract...

I keep receiving emails from visitors asking me about my views regarding the GM70 vs. 6C33C. I am clearly not in a position to provide any EXPERT opinion because of two reasons. First, I never had a properly built GM70 in my disposal. Second, I ...

About a year ago I've take an interview of V.Lamm, and he mentioned his plans to release GM70-based amp. May be it is already on the market. Roman, could you descride your own observations regarding the Sound of Soviet tubes. ...

I always was “concerned” about those large high voltage triodes: 211, 845, GM70…. They kind of different… The 845 always was brutal and not elegant, 210 was elegant but not sophisticated, and the GM70 was sophisticated enough but no one build a...

I have to tell you something: I do not believe to audio people. Whatever they say has some freakish twist of desire to present the sings in a certain way instead of witnessing and experiencing the thighs as they are. This is one of the reasons why I ...

Why use the GM70 apart from its power potential? For one thing, it seems to require literally lethal voltages to become remotely listenable. Is it really "that" linear, to insist on it?But my experience with GM70 is quite imited. I ...

This subject of comparing the quality of ML2 and ML3 sound is very interesting and I do not think that it will be ever observed in public. I hoverer do have interest to learns about comparative capacity between properly sounding ML2.0 and ML3. The M...

Not quite on topic but perhaps this deserves to be here:http://www.theaudiophile.net/threads/762-Lyrita-s-new-Mono-amps-and-DHT-Preamp?p=7735#post7735It appears to be a simple two stage SE design with the 6e5p coupled to the GM70 via an interstage tr...

Well, as I understand there is no truly GM70 vs. 6C33C context yet (sound in the respectfully equitable load) from you and it will be very interesting to hear from you when you feel that you are ready to say something. As I understand they are the sa...

It is impossible to make two amp with the same quality with such big difference in output tubes , the transformer design are vastly different, a 10Kohm transformer would never have a good bandwidth as a 600ohm transformer. I just have to experime...

Romy, thanks a lot for your response. I have no idea how come I did not come across your website years ago. I found it a few days ago and I spent many hours reading it. I am greatly intrigued by the Milq and I have some follow up questions, I hope so...

I got a forwarded email today containing the Lamm Industry’s release notes about their new SET amplifiers.
http://www.GoodSoundClub.com/PDF/LammML3.pdf The good thing in this is that Vladimir is still Vladimir and he did changed since the Rich ...

Gregm,
I do not think that to be reasonable is a tall order, in fact I would insist that I nothing but reasonable.
Still, I feel that it is a huge distraction for people and a disappointment for me that others see juts an amplifier with a bi...

[quote user="vuki"]Anyway, my plan was to make powerful triode NFBless amplifier for relatively small money. I'm really satisfied with what I did. Maybe I should have done GM70 SE, but what would be my next project then?[/quote] The GM70 is a bitch a...

[quote user="haralanov"] According to a friend of mine, who has a lot of experience with GM70, this tube starts to sing only with (very high quality) interstage transformer coupling. He told me that when it is used with coupling capacitor (as is the ...

Yes, decoud, the 6e5p-GM70 is an easy amp but 6e5p is a hell of voltage driver and I do not feel that a single 6e5p will be able to drive GM70 into grid currents. If people use dead speakers and need a lot of power than use the ability of direct hea...

Only that a higher price may allow the constructor to get away fm the annoyingly ubiquitous "made to meet a price point" and push his design to his limits...Romy notes:[quote]I approach to the subject from a perspective of the OPPORTUNITIES THAT ML3 ...

Yesterday I got two emails asking me about Lamm ML3. I replied as I usually do, saying that I that I do not practice in satisfaction in audio-consumer curiosity. Still, it made me to think again about a hypothetic amp around GM-70.I am not a fa...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Because GM70 can work in A2 class the ML3 has a very powerful high current-capable second stage (I do not know it they are 4 parallel 6H30 of some kind of composite follower) to be able to handle the GM70’s grid current.[/q...

The Audio Fedirection guy got a new camera? I bet he did. Anyhow, the pictures are courtesy of Audio Fedirection blog.

As I said above - I was as queries to have a preview of that ML3 amp as I was wonder...

[quote user="Paul S"] I think that bit of marketing hype must derive from Lamm's ML2 (& 2.1?) "Operating Manual", which says: [the ML2] "Maximum Output Voltage" "with continuous sine waves, at 1kHz @ rated line voltage" [is] "(blah, blah, blah), ...

I actually read the review carefully.
My initials sentiments were very accurate. Knowing the Vladimir’s reaction to those thighs I might presume that he also feels that this level of “intelligent writing about audio” is no more intellectu...

I just finished the GM70SE amplifier. It is built on the same size chassis as the 6C33C (with few extra holes) but 1/2 in higher to accommodate quite a few extra parts.
The GM70SE is built with quite interesting feature similar to 6C33CSE :- Double...
