the ML 3.1 was a design using a different topology due to the problem of not being able to find an adequate supply of 6N30P-DR tubes (emphasis on DR)
At Steve request I removed the price from my advertisement post - I was not aware that advertisements are forbidden in WBF threads, my apologies to everyone involved in the discussion. Please look for my ML3's elsewhere.
I will only report on general aspects of Lamm products in this thread. Still interested in learning about good top speakers that match them and new experiences with the ML3 - no one knows the future!

Just having fun. Those amps have traveled to some of the best audio systems in the world, my system is not worthy.
I am surprised that they haven't sold yet as @microstrip price is very fair and the amps are in perfect shape.
I wouldn't hesitate to use them on your M2!5's. I don't believe in the least that there is any requirement that speakers should cost more than electronics. Hell, DDK recommends some vintage speakers that cost less than $10k IIRC, but he'd still tell you the ML3 would be the best amp you could have with them.
I think Lamm ML3 are in the hi end amp group worth building a system around if you want a stable installation and aren't into changing speakers every two years or so. Speaker requirement would generally be high efficiency>93db or so, no inordinate current demands (some hi eff. speakers still seem to need current, even if they squawk loud with a watt), no excessive damping requirements, no excessive, complex impedance etc.
Maybe I'm not informed, but I would think more horn guys would be into them as end stage amps.

Are you s financial masochist Micro ?
As far as I know there is no L3.1 in the Lamm range of products - preamps are LL1 and probably Steve was addressing the LL1.1 - but I can be wrong.
I am a private consumer, not a dealer - I accept that experimenting gear can have a cost. It is why I only buy new boxed products if I am quite sure about them - the XLF's or the Vivaldi's , for example.
Most of all else come from part-exchanges of known distributors or serious people in WBF .
Bought bunch of 6N30P-DR from Upscale years ago for a preamp that never materialized. Maybe I could sell to fund early retirement?

I don't understand this. I posted a price in an ad in the Classifieds section on WBF. Are you saying you can't post it in a regular thread? If so, why not just post an ad in the Classifieds section?
Plenty of people post advertisements of equipment for sale all the time in threads, including dealers and me
in the past. But it seems it violates the TOS - I was not aware of it. Always learning.

That was my point.
we started a classifieds to take discussing prices and sales out of threads and placing them where they belong. ..... in the classified section
