People who have heard the Lamm ML3, also GM70 (32w) at $130k! Seem to be ecstatic with Wilson combination and the big Wilsons are not nearly as efficient. Then again the Lamm is running at 32w and you are supposed to change the tubes every 18 months. The Shindo amp puts out 20w but most likely will last for many, many years as Ken Shindo designs his gear to be very easy on the often very hard to find tubes. |

Can't vouch for the Giscours as I have not heard it but the Lafon GM's70's are wonderful. It has a big, bold, immediate sound that is intoxicating. Not as subtle or nuanced as some of the smaller SET's perhaps, but it has a "you are there" quality to it that really puts the musicians in your room.
I believe the GM70's go for $20K and the giscour for $30K.

The Giscours has such an immensely incredible phono stage, it's too bad they are only using half of it's capabilities. -M |
