designers of world
class performance,
premium high-end audio electronics
Founded
in October 1993, LAMM INDUSTRIES, INC. has gained a world-wide
reputation for designing high-end audio products of astonishing
sonic performance. From our LL2 linestage preamplifier to the ML3 Signature
monoblock
amplifiers, the performance of LAMM products is setting standards
for audiophiles the world over.
LAMM
employs tube and solid-state technology, along with innovative
engineering, to create products that many have heralded as reference
class. All our products are designed to deliver not only the best
performance at their respective price points, but at any price. All
products are designed and manufactured in the USA and are covered by
three U.S. Patents. Using optimal parts quality with meticulous
attention to detail and the finest craftsmanship, LAMM INDUSTRIES
proudly creates what we believe to be the finest audio components on
the market today. Although not inexpensive, LAMM products
represent an investment in long-term musical satisfaction.
Owned by
some of the finest audio critics and journalists in the world,
enjoyed by countless audiophiles in many countries, LAMM products
deliver breakthrough performance and uncompromising sonic quality.
LAMM
INDUSTRIES, INC. has been conceived, founded and
run by its president and Director of Engineering,
Vladimir Lamm. As in the case of a
"theater of one actor" where the
actor's character determines the nature of plays
and their performance, LAMM is an embodiment of
Vladimir's extensive experience, unbending
motivation, and love of music. He is involved in
the entire process of product development, from
concept to implementation into production, and he
personally stands behind each product.
The
company is operated by a very stringent set of
standards. No detail is too small or unimportant;
what's hidden from the eye is just as important
as what's visible. Strict quality control is
maintained throughout the entire production
process. All key elements are carefully selected,
tested and matched (where necessary). Every
module and assembled PCB is test-bench tested,
followed by an 8-10-hour burn-in period. The
product is then assembled and tested, followed by
a 72-hour burn-in period. The burned-in units are
then retested and re-measured. The
"pre-burn-in" and
"post-burn-in" measurement results
are recorded in a production report maintained
for each piece of equipment. LAMM products
operate on all world AC voltages without
elaborate modification. All products are shipped
in heavy-duty custom-made wooden crates.
All
of LAMM products are no-compromise designs
utilizing high quality (many military graded)
expensive components, along with custom-designed
transformers and best technological processes
available today. The inside of the equipment is
where the handcraft and balance are most apparent
in the way the components are arranged and mixed.
The external design is elegant yet self-effacing,
corroborating our believe that high-end audio
equipment should be a means for contact with
music, not an eye-catching piece of furniture.
Our money is invested into MAKING THE SOUND, and
that's what we are in this business for.
Vladimir's
extensive experience in the field of sound
reproduction and psycho-acoustics had led him to
develop a theory of a "human hearing
mechanism" which lies at the basis of all of
his designs and which allows him to CREATE THE
SOUND. Having experimented with various
electronic models of a human hearing mechanism,
Vladimir had arrived at a limited number of
topologies enabling him to create sound
reproduction equipment with PREDEFINED and
PREDICTABLE parameters, which, in turn,
eliminates the need for trial-and-error approach
to design and, as a result, the need for
listening tests in a process of product
development. (Physical prototypes of new models
are completed based solely on calculations; once
the prototype is finished, the design is
practically ready to go into production.)
The
result of this work is a number of hybrid
and vacuum tube designs each setting a benchmark of
excellence in their respective categories. We
pride ourselves in the value of our products and
the service we provide.
All
of LAMM designs are much more than a combination
of circuitries, metal boxes and trial-and-error
efforts. They are the most unlikely combination
of pure science and fine musical instruments with
a touch of that special something that makes the
music come alive in a process of its reproduction
and sets it free from the confines of electronic
equipment. Our customer is someone who has gone
through all circles of "Dante's hell"
in search of a miracle and who simply wants to
experience the musical truth. With LAMM equipment
he has come home and his search for a miracle is
over.
