I would have to agree with the above post, especially concerning the Jeff Rowland integrated amp. I have heard it, and it comes very, very close to the performance of the JR separates. However, if you have one source such as a CD player that can play through an amp directly, I feel that you may be better off going in that direction instead. Good luck with your purchase!
Are the performance of separates worth the price?
I am considering the purchase of an integrated amp or combination pre-amp/amp from the same manufacturer - both are based on similar technology. The separates will cost approximately 45% more. Can I expect the performance to justify the price?
Additional info:
Considering the soon to be released Jeff Rowland Concerto Integrated vs. Concerto Pre-Amp and Model 201 Monoblocks (or) the BAT VK-300x Integrated vs. BAT VK-31se and the BAT VK-250.
