For many years before I got an LL2 a few months ago i used a variety of pre-amps with the Lamm M2.2s.
All of them sounded very good w/ the Lamm M2.2s. No doubt.
But when i added the LL2 into the chain, the best got even better. The sound is fuller, more analog sounding, the details is not as much as the other pre-amps I had on hand but i like the more organic sound with the Lamm combo.
I also tried the BAT pre-amp w/ the Lamm M2.2s and I felt the combo is also very good. Not as full sounding as the LL2 but nonetheless also very musical.
I personally would not mind having a BAT pre-amp in the future to change flavors w/ the M2.2s.
One tip: the LL2 is super super sensitive to tubes. With right tubes it is heaven, but w. a wrong tube set, it can sound very analytical & unmusical... my favorites are mullards & amperexes.
BUT, the LL2 is a definite keeper !!
