Jeff Rowland's Continumm

Thanks for the greeting quick response.

My prior understanding was that 501 and 201 use ICEpower 500ASP and 1000ASP modules respectively which includes power supply unit whereas model 302 and 312 use ICEPower 500A and 1000A respectively which requires separate power supply units.

I have sent an email to Jeff Rowland about 2 weeks ago and have not received reply as yet. Perhaps I might have to give them a call to find out.

Thanks anyway guys~

Resend your email and give it a few days. Jeff checks his email once or twice per week. You can also call during business hours (probably more reliable).

Just curious, if you don't mind, why would you care?

Thanks David I might have to resend the mail.

Well I've heard there are difference within the module results in sonic difference. If new continuum 500 uses 1000A instead of 1000ASP, That might means the continuum may well reach near 312 which may be really something.

Hi Facias, I suspect you may find it easier to get in touch with Jeff by phone than by eMail. 302 and 312 do not contain the same ICE modules. 302 had a discrete power supply. I believe that the newer 312 uses a 3rd generation ICE module with integrated power supply. . . . and having said that, it has more authority than older 302. It is worth remembering though that JRDG uses ICE modules as basic low level building blocks, and only 102, and 201 should be deemed relatively minimalistic designs. Particular Continuum 500, 312 and 301 devices all have complex circuitry designed/implemented to support the ICE modules. I believe that Continuum 500 uses integrated power supplies which are fed 385V DC current by the PFC 1500W front end rectifier. G.

Send one to hi fi critic and see what they say about it.
