Old Lamm M1.1 - Should I consider?

[sidvee]

I live in India where Lamm does not have a dealer. However I really love the Lamm sound and own the ll2.1 deluxe picked up stateside. A pair of 12 year old M1.1's are available for sale here at a very attractive price. Also since they are available in India logistically it is much better to buy them as all the Lamms are monstrous and shipping is a big hassle when trying to import. Do you think I should consider these? What would be the pitfalls of buying such old amplifiers - such as drying/defective caps etc. Do share your thoughts.
Cheers,
Sid
