Good choice with the Rowland - as you probably noticed since you mentioned it, they hold their value. I bought a version 'I' back in 1999 for $3k, sold it for $3k a couple years later, and they still get about the same now. Other contenders are Plinius, Classe, and of course McIntosh, all used of course. New, you'll pay the premium.
solid state integrateds that will hold their value
I HATE losing a lot of $$$ when the bug hits me to try something new so I like to purchase gear that is not only reliable but holds its value well long term (and of course sounds good!).
Two on my short list are:
Jeff Rowland Concentra I or II
YBA Passion
Mac's also seem to remain pretty stable in pricing but i have actually never HEARD one. Comments/comparisons of sound etc welcome.
Thanks
