Anyone compare Herron VTSP-3a and Lamm L2.1 Deluxe?

sorry for the error in above post , Keith shipped it back in a week .

I see you have the Herron VTSP in your system, so you already know the house sound of the Herron to some degree. Are you looking @ the Lamm as a change all choice? There is a reasonably good deal on the Lamm LL2.1 deluxe on Agon right now and I have a source where I bought mine new that was a steal. Like you I haven't compared the two choices you list but did go thru some very nice preamps to get to the Lamm and it is and will remain the center piece of my system. Good luck

Love Herron, the sound and the man, but I'm mostly wondering whether tube rectification in the Lamm may give me a more textured, tactile sound... if that makes sense. My audiophile lingo-speak is lacking.

Don’t know the Lamm but own the Herron. Not sure if what you are looking for is a euphonic tube sound with added warmth but you won’t get that with the Herron. You will know you are listening to tubes because of the harmonic rightness and the air and space around the instruments and voices. But you won’t hear any stereotypical tube colorations or tube induced noise. Just a high level of purity and impeccable timing. And, as others have mentioned, Keith!

@dhcod , I think you might be onto something with the tube rectification thing as I love my Lamm, tube rectified, love my Allnic H1500se phono over the Herron phono, again tube rectified and love my Dennise Had Inspire headphone amp also tube rectified. I am just drawn to tube rectified equipment. Enjoy the music.
