The Lamm Industries M1.2 Reference is a high-current hybrid monoblock power amplifier. It combines a specially selected 6922/ECC88 vacuum triode voltage-gain stage with twelve high-speed MOSFET output transistors, operating without overall negative feedback. Its switch-selectable bias and voltage settings optimize Class A operation for approximately 4-ohm or 8-ohm speaker loads. Lamm specifies 110 watts continuous pure Class A output into 8 ohms or 4 ohms, with substantially higher output available into very low impedances. The amplifier provides balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs, can be configured for worldwide AC mains, and supports remote/triggered power control.
