Naim or Jeff Rowland?

Miami, for sake of completeness, Rowland is expected to release this month a new integrated amp to be called Continuum Series 2.... It is essentially the successor of... the successor of... the original Concerto integrated that you are looking at. 400W per channel into 8 Ohms doubling into 4 Ohms, and has an optional DAC card. List price is $9.850 US with the DAC card.

Miami, if you want to familiarize yourself with the Rowland Concerto integrated, the Rowland online Knowledge Base has an entry with links to Concerto specifications, User Manual, and photos:

One interesting feature of the 250W Concerto appears to be that it can be used as a full integrated amp as well as just as a linestage/preamplifier, because it has also two preamplified outputs for used with a user-supplied amp... You will find all of this described in the manual.

Note that unlike its Continuum 250 successor, the Concerto integrated is not listed as compatible with the external Rowland PC-1 rectifier, which is based on an active power factor conversion module.

Miami, note that there are two identically-looking Rowland products called Concerto... There is the Concerto integrated, and then there is the Concerto preamplifier. The latter lacks the amplification section. Make sure you have been offered the full Concerto Integrated, and that its original remote control is included in the package.
