Rogue M-120 and M-150


Hi, I am considering buying the Rogue M-120 or M-150 monoblocks and have read a lot of great reviews about both. Since one of the key factors in sound quality is the interaction with the speakers' crossover, I would greatly appreciate any feedback on speakers that have impressed you with the Rogue's amps. By the way I currently have a pair of Von Schweikert VR-4, (which I have enjoyed for several years), but I am also considering a possible upgrade to the Vandersteen Quatro maybe at a later date.
Thanks a lot!!! Alessandro

Alessandro...I owned Rogue M-120 and enjoyed them very much. I used them with Merlin Vsm-Mxe, Sonus Faber Cremona, Speaker Art, and many others. They are wonderful amps that should work quite well with your current speakers as well as Vandy Quatro. My only problem was keeping them running. Unlike many others on Agon who have had great service from Rogue, my experience was not good. Service was expensive and very, very poor. They never were able to get them to work. I had to find a gentleman in L. A. to repair them. Again, I am sure most have good luck with them, I didn't. FWIW, I bought them in the beginning on the recommendation of a friend, and his failed as well. I have heard great things about the Rogue M-150 though.
Alessandro, I think Rogue Audio has no doubt earned their reputation for fine service. No company, nor product, is perfect. My experience with them was certainly in the minority I would assume, and I always was able to speak with Mark (not sure which one) and he was always very nice. They just couldn't seem to fix my M-120's. I would not hesitate to try the M-150's.
