Rowland Capri vs. the ynergy IIi


Anyone compare these two preamps?

I used the Synergy for many years. When the Concerto came out I compared it to the Synergy. The Concerto was better. I bought it. Same with the Capri compared to the Concerto.
So yes the Capri is a better preamp.

At one time Jeff's FAQ on his web site said something like,
Yes, the new models sound better or we would not market them.
I owned a Synergy IIi for many years. It's a fabulous preamp. I traded it in to get the Ayre KX-R preamp, as I have several other Ayre components. The Capri is not a better preamp.
Guido, What do you know about the RCA plugs that Rowland recommends for the unused imputs on the back of the Capri?
Husk, If you have any specific questions about those shorting plugs, I'll be glad to relay them to JRDG. I only know they are made by Cardas and I am leaving them where they are on my Capri.
