In its main room, Lamm paired its top of the line ML3 Signature monoblocks and separate power supplies ($139,290/pair) with Wilson’s MAXX 3 loudspeakers ($68,000/pair).
The front end consisted of Lamm’s dual mono, four box LL1 Signature preamplifier with individual power supplies ($42,690). Only one of the mono preamplifier components is shown.
Neodio provided its NR22T CD transport ($13,300) and NR22D DAC ($12,000) in matching black finishes for digital playback.
Vinyl was played back on a Onedorf turntable ($150,000) with Grahan Phantom 2 tonearm ($4900) and Benz Micro LP S cartridge ($5000).
The system was supported by $55,000 of Harmonic Resolution Systems isolation platforms and connected together with $92,500 of Kubla-Sonsa cables.
At $600,000, the music was beautiful but, as was the case last year, emotionally uninvolving, which is odd since I have heard all of this equipment in different systems with much different results. I think the music selected by Vladimir and the volume at which it was played when I was in the room was to blame. Classical music from, say, Mahler or jazz would have better shown the system’s potential.
