Which Lamm should I add to the flock?

I have a Classe' 301 amp, an Audio Aero Capitale C.D player which I use as the pre, and Piega P10 speakers. The Classe' had lemoned on me again, to the shop for the last time. I heard Tenor 75wp with this same setup, and it was beautiful. I am leaning toward the Lamm's, but this is where my ignorance shows. The ML2's or the ML1.1's? This is a major purchase for me (hopefully the last for years to come with amps), someday to replace the p10's. Thanks for any help and suggestions.

Best amp I ever heard was the hybrid 2.1. I heard a while back but I didn't get to hear the tube models. I agree with Kurt on that I just couldn't afford it.

If you are looking for a really clean tube that is a drop in for a 6922 that won't cost you $200 try the under recognized but really better sounding Mullard CV2493 not the 70s 6922 or even the CV 2492. I think I got mine from Tubemonger I'm not sure though. It is in a class of its own and really has a superbly clean but great tone simply a different sound than any other 6922 variants. I tried a boatload except for the ridiculously expensive collector's trophies. Contact me offline and I'll give the run down. (I don't understand the use of a 12AX7 in a circuit that is made for a 6 volt tube not a 12volt, be careful or you will destroy your cicuitry.)
