Have Jeff Rowland Concentra II am I crazy...


Was thinking of using it as a preamp, Getting the Mcintosh 2102 or Vtl st150 amps. To bring that tube sound to Sonus Farber Grand pianos. Thanks for your toughts

I used the Concentra II as a preamp for a short time while in the process of changing directions and it performed great.

If you have thoughts of getting a Mac amp to pair with it, you may want to consider the McIntosh MA-2275 tube integrated, it is a great tube integrated amp, and sell the Rowland.
Thanks everybody found a vtl 6.5 and picked it up. It is great. Some very refined sounds going on. But there is all they warn in tubing out. So far with a brand new amp one tube blew and replaced and with the pre I am being told that the tubes might need to be changed because I am getting a little bit of noise when nothing is playing. I thought it was hard choosing types of equipement But Ill be damned there are a ton more choices when it comes to tubes.
Agreed with Rapogee - I have had many Rowland amps and are pretty good at their on sake, but if you want to go to tubes . you shall cross the river fully.
