Your choice for SET amp?


If you could choose Von Schweikert DB99 with the ribbon tweeter upgrade or Avantgarde Duo 3.1 for the same price to mate with a pair of Lamm ML2 which one would you take.

I am looking for the right speakers in my system which is EMM Labs front end and Lamm ML2. Any advice or first hand experience would be great....Thanks

Well Tickfight, if I didn't have horns, the VS-99 or 100 would be the first place I'd look.

I'll be going to my friend's place next week for a listening test of various CD players, as he intends to choose only one among them. I look forward to the opportunity, as we will be listening on his 99's.

Which cd players will you be listening too? I would like to hear your impressions. I am pairing the 99's up with consonance 211 SET mono blocks. Will be A/B comparing the Droplet and a modded 2.2 in about two weeks when the speakers and amps are delivered. The speakers are demo's so already broken in and I still need to decide on a source.
You know, I'm not sure. I'd have to let you know afterwards. Or you can write directly to farmersre (Rick) and ask him. He'll be excited to hear about your speaker choice.
I ended up with the DB99's. It was a really hard choice as both speakers are so good. I have had the 99's for about two months now and they have finally settled in. At first they were so harsh on the top end, but the dealer warned me of that due to break in. Now that they have broken in, I am really happy with my decision. Things always sound better in your own home.
Sweet Delancey!

I've got them too-- have been very happy with them also.

Good listening, I expect this year may be a good year for the 99's as they certainly are the gem in the VSA line up.
