FWIW, i always leave my Gryphon on full-on Class A even though they have 2 other 'eco modes' which reduce the amount of Class A. Honestly, i dont hear too much difference between middle and full-on, but i definitely hear a difference between lo and medium/high. And this is with my Wilsons where i know that it should not matter at all given their efficiency.

I am using two of those per side in a bridged mode per side to power the midbass of the German Physiks Emperor lls. Never felt the need for tube rolling, because the sound of a kick bass for dynamics, or that of a cello, or base in tone colours, or that of a Steinway for both, dynamics and colours, came, to my ears at least, uncanningly close to the real thing.
Also, since I run them bridged I never felt the need for a pure class A amp. Most of the time they run in class A anyway, I would suppose.

I've said many times that in the more than10 years I've used Lamm gear the only tube I've ever rolled has been the 12ax7
Yes, Always found the Sovtek 12ax7 (in other gear, not in my Lamms of course, because they don't have those, thankfully)-Always unbearably harsh. The first thing I threw out, both in my Jadis 80s and in the Jadis 200 amps. substituted them for French military Mazdas.
Just opened my lamm m and found 6n23
Very clear and dynamic but a bit mono harmonic
Swapped golden lion 6922 much more harmonically rich a little smig less dynamic

The piano is so dynamic colourful and the string resonances so real especially the bass notes
The power of the M2.2 no clipping
The combo of lamm and morel is very convincing
My guess is big Wilson would also be good

Hi Awsmone,
Yes, Vlad knows what he is doing and by no means only in this case! What Golden Lions did you use? NOS or the new stuff?
Hi Andrew, so you have Morels and CLXs both, or did you replace the CLX with the Morel?
Ok just read your first post, you have both.
So you are still driving CLX with Bakoon?
Would like to know impressions of Lamm on CLX, if possible

Lol I have done
Currently just running active multi driver
Clx midrange mid bass DWM and three subwoofers two low down to 40 Hz and third below 40 Hz and upper tweeter above 16kHz

Interesting I use multi driver active for classical and is impressive before I had as multi channel but found phasing to complicated
I do up-sample vinyl with accuphase AD through this system

awsmone... As or when you progressively re-connect your system with the CLX's I would be most interested, if convenient and feasible, in your consideration of the Lamm's driving the panels alone, sans subs, then with?
