This is the age old problem of never getting it all in one package. I use a Kharma/Lamm combination and love the way it sounds, but would love a little more power.
Are you looking for the dynamics (CAT SL1 or 2)of a live concert or are you comfortable with subtle nuances ( Lamm ML 2, 2.1) of a chamber piece or solo voice, but you can not find both in one unit!
But music consists of both dynamics and subtlty and until someone can make an amplifier that is around 150- 200 watts per ch/ but has SET like naturaliness, we are relegated to settle for one or the other.
I would open this discussion up to other people who have tried amps such as Gerry M5, Audio Note amps, or Lamm's ML 1.1's or Cary CAD 211's, etc. to share their findings.
