Miked510, I appreciate your insightful comments. I recognize that all of the factors you mention play an important role in component selection. And, I recognize that the matching of components is key.
What I am looking for though is an apple to apple comparison, with everything else being equal, between the Calypso and the Lamm LL2 Deluxe. Naturally, if a comparison is made in two different systems, the comparison is not necessarily valid. If anyone has actually compared these two preamps within the same system, please offer your comments.
