If you generally like the Levinson sound, just go with one of their newer amps. You might be disappointed in the bass of the Rowland... excessively warm and round. However, the mids/highs of the Concentra-II are quite musical. Or, just wait for the new release Rowland integrated amp.
ML333 VS Concentra II
Recently my ML333 develope harming noise in one of the channel and this is not the first time after it service by the local agent. Everytime the service report shows replacement of capacitors, I am woundering what is the normal life span for a so call high quality capacitor inside the amp? Does anyone out there encounters similar experience with me or the capacitor leakage problems is common in all high power rating Class A amplifier. I am getting sick of moving the giant ML333 around and planning to downgrade it to JRDW Concentra II, is it wise move? I will be appriciate for any feedback or recommendation on good quality integrated amp. Good Listening!!
