Those are custom made verbatim cables. Awesome stuff but not readily available.

The Lamm gear will need quite a bit longer break in if they are new. You'll know it when the M1.2's have aged to perfection. It is quite noticeable. By the way, try the high setting on the Lamm amps as well, you may prefer that setting depending on the type of music you listen to.

Enjoy your system!
Left the music on overnight and can already tell they are starting to break-in very nicely. This morning the bass if firmer and the sound stage has opened up. The bad news is I have to go out of town tomorrow AM so won't be able to listen to them much this week. Well have to work to pay for these type of toys

Beautiful setup - you've inspired me to try to sneak up to Ann Arbor to visit Paragon later this week, as I'm visiting family near Toledo right now.

Oh man, that is the worst! You get something new, and you have to go away for awhile. Well, it will make it that much more exciting to come home!

They look wonderful! Congrats!

Default Amp stands

Personally I like the Sound anchor stands the Lamms are placed on already.But then again just like any other owner I've started using Sound Anchors products more and more since he fabricates them to each individual order anyway. Those critical mass stands are very beautiful no doubt about it.

Ok it's been awhile now... I think we are all eager to hear your impressions!

Also if I could figure out how to upload photos, I have photos of some black Sasha's going through paint and production (Daryl was not sure which was going to be HIS.. they might or might not be his... yet they are still fun to look at!). Now that I am a subscriber, does anyone want to tell me how to do it?

I've been traveling a lot so haven't had enough seat time, however the Sasha's are sounding wonderful. As Serge and other's have mentioned they pair very well with the LAMM 1.2s. The music sounds lifelike. Piano's sound as they should, symbols and other instruments sound like they are in the room. The Sasha's give me a window into the music where I hear things in recorings I've never heard before yet they are not too analytical. They maintian this detail while being very musical. I also have B&W 800Ds (That I like) which at times the tweeter can stand out. The Sasha's are a very integrated sounding speaker top to bottom. I'm a happy camper!

Wait till they reach 500h mark. They improve considerably during that time.

BTW - you pic reminds me that it is time to get rid of the casters and put my speakers on spikes
