Lamm LL2 Deluxe....

Assuming that this pre is in excellent condition, do you think $2500.00 if fair, or a little high since it is over 10 years old?

whart,

My heartfelt thanks! I missed the obvious until you mentioned it. I just called Lamm, and spoke to his wife, and they can add the attenuation option for $245.00. He will also give it a thorough going over for another $120.00.

Thanks Again, John

Stereophile has an in depth review of this component and based on their review, and having it paired with an amplifier with a "normal" input impedance, e.g., higher than 20K ohms, I personally would not hesitate to own this  LL2 for $2500. A comparable quality tube preamp in the used market would demand a higher price.

Yes, most seem to agree that it's a very good pre, and well balanced overall.

Rox- glad that worked out for you. When I bought my Lamm gear, all used, I had Vlad go over it. He didn't charge much to replace a few parts on the amps, and updated my line stage- the L2- to the then current spec. They are very nice people- Elina is really terrific at getting stuff done, and if you catch Vlad, he can be charming as hell. All the work is done in a small residential duplex in Deep Brooklyn. Until recently, I lived in NY, so we'd drive stuff over for repair or a check up. (I had Vlad go over my amps before I moved, to avoid the burden of shipping from Texas). 
Good luck with it. I'm sure you'll be pleased, and if not, there is a solid market for Lamm products.
