[quote user="Paul S"]I don't know what you mean by "the demagnetizing coils in its output transformer". What does this mean?[/quote]I do not have any plans about ML2. A friend of my asked me to help him with his ML2. So, I did end up the amps s...

OK , so I looked at the April 2008 Stereophile.I noticed a while back that Art Dudley stopped listing his ML2.1s as "assocoated equipment" along with his reviews, listing instead the Shindo Montele and Cortese stereo SETs, and then just the Cort...

[quote user="Paul S"] Does anyone know the voltage the big couping caps actually see? Yes, I should measure it, but I would rather avoid the drill of opening the amps, propping them up somehow and measuring if someone already knows the answer. Of co...

Thank you JD for all the information. It was most helpfull. I will get the amps in the original crates, the instructions manual anf a few sets replacement tubes. Do you know the physical size of the fuses?. Seems like I have to buy some. I have alrea...

Jessie, I think you go overly crazzy in here. The buzzing you got is from your inaccuracy of your “small clips”. A Regular divider at input should not have ant noise, regardless the resistors were used. Do not spend a lot and do not go into the craz...

[quote user="Paul S"] Speakers: I built a version of Dick Olsher's 3-way Diamond Edition BassZilla (hard to find at www.blackdahlia.com), and I tricked it out considerably from his mule. Bass is BR, 15" Audax P380MR, which is a nice semi-...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] "Short the ML2’s inputs and the hiss should be gone"
I assume it is not a mistake, and that you mean short the unused input on each POWER AMP (as opposed to the PREAMP).
(I am currently using the XLR connections becau...

Reading at my site Paul’s narrative about his fight with ML2’s tube and the ML2’s tube sockets I need to confess that I always was suspecting that he is some kind of odd wacko with bizarre and sick approach to the subject of amplifier tubing. Too muc...

Paul,
The idea of the not threaded forum is good that it is always there is opportunity to go back to all there and update own views, or to extend them. In many moths/years when the ML2 stop be a novelty for you, you might return to this thered and ...

[quote user="Paul S"]I got new 6C33Cs for V2s from Lamm because no one else wants to match them, let alone match them for gain…[/quote]
There is no meaningful mutual conductance or bias matching for 6C33Cs (in context of ML2) besides gain matching, ...

What speakers are your using? The “4R at about 80 Hz before going back up their average 8 Ohms at 30 Hz” is not good for SETs. I prefer to have 16R and do not let it to drop below 12R. Lamm is quite fixable with loading, probably because ...

You would not have ‘limitations imposed by of a pair of SET amps such as the ML2s”. ML2 would do fine, juts make sure that it would be older ML2 before 2001-2002 production. You try the Melqs then, the parts are not a problem at all. Everything is ve...

[quote user="Paul S"] With the Wright amps the G2Si did not seem to live up to their efficiency specs using my little cap and coil crossover. I can't offer good descriptions of their sound with the ML2s until I get my TT going, but ...

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...

[quote user="Paul S"]Yesterday a nice fellow drove off with "my" Lamm ML2s. Now it is really sinking in: How will will I find anything else this good, along with more power?These amps were like a PhD in sound, what might be done with hi-fi. Yes, I ...

[quote user="guy sergeant"] I have not drawn any conclusions about how this amplifier might sound. I cannot imagine how the input stage you use will behave and how that will impact on what the 6C33 does. As I've said previously the Lamm amplifiers us...

I've heard so much about these legendary SET mono-blocks; but as I understand it, it's VERY important to match them up with proper (efficient) speakers.Anyway, I'd welcome some feedback on matching these amps with Lamhorn 1.8's + AER MD3B drivers (~1...

[quote user="Paul S"]So, does anyone know anything about "good" sockets for the ML-2s? I forget when and where I saw some sort of boutique Teflon jobbies that are pretty darned expensive. Maybe DIY Hi-Fi, in Hong Kong? Also, although Teflon is a ...

[quote user="Paul S"] If Lamm had actually used the larger 950s in my unit I would probably be less curious about it, but for mine he used 10uF 935 couplers with small 950s for bypass (... I assume they are bypass caps...). Hard to imagine 10 uF ...

Laurent,
The V2 in 6C33C does NOT need to be matched by other characteristic then gain and it is very easy to do. If you have two V2 tubes and they have different entry points for bias but the same gains then you will not detect any sonic cons...

Today I replaced the problematic pair of Chinese 7 pin sockets on one of my ML2s. It looked like they were replaced at least once before, and that my job is at least the second set of replacement sockets, so three total counting the OEM pair. There...

There are no relays in the ML2 that might produce the “violent switch-on pulse… which threatens to blow your speaker”. What you have is a dead V2 tube. When 6C33C dies then it begging to produce the erratic pings. Juts replace the tube and you should...

[quote user="Paul S"] I absolutely hear the feedback working in the ML2, and I happen to like the effect a lot… [/quote] Can you elaborate on it in subjective terms? How what you hear are you able to attribute to feedback and how do you know that it ...

[quote user="Paul S"] Not to "sell" Milquiades, but how (other than multi-channel and bandwidth limiting) would an SET not crap out full range? Even the "big" ones just give out at too soon, and they can't maintain balance under any sort of pre...

I'm working on a project that may be of interest to others, and thought posting to this old thread was a better way than beginning a new post.I use speaker level passive crossovers, between multi-amps (not DSET) and drivers. My desire is to move the...
