FM Acoustics fm155 preamp


The fm155 is the cheapest FM acoustics preamp and if hunted for, can be found for about $5k in the pre-owned market. The question is, is this entry level FM preamp worth considering ? Sometimes these big brands compromise too much in their entry level products ultimately leaving a lot to be desired. Hence my question on this entry level FM preamp.

Kindly advise.

The Lamm LL2 sounds definitely more lifelike than the FM Acoustics. And the Wavac 300B is an excellent Design. I think, that combination is great. No 300B has the ability to drive conventional speakers, They are not made for that. They are super with Horns. When you still hold your Westminster speakers, believe me, you will never get the triode sound with these. No way. You will always get an impression but never the full monty. They play loud but that's it. None of them is able to deliver the miracle of the sonic fascination which is in the first watt...
Good luck :-)
