The New Jeff Rowland amplifiers ROCK

Just got back from the CES yesterday and saw some of the awesome new lines, I love the new class AB Rowland pieces.
Absolutely wonderful! 925 and 625 AB amplifiers.
Did any one know about this? well thats the place to find out I guess. Hansen had their new speakers with the Tenor monos and they were nice too.

Funny that many companies were not there at the same time.
Rowland went with the AB design since the class D was for the more affordable group. Very nice selection from this long running company.

Hi Rapogee,

yes Guido,
I believe the new Avalon Time was driven by 2 301

Rapogee,
could you shortly tell me why Rowland class D is not your cup of tea and what do you prefer in Rowland AB?

thanks

Due to auto-ranging circuitry and dual-stage voltage regulation, the audio
performance will not be affected by any voltage fluctuations within the operating
voltage range. The CORUS PREAMPLIFIER can be operated at any mains voltage
over the range of 85 to 265 VAC without any adjustments necessary.

ergo insensitive to power cable ? ...

difficult to believe

do we know somenting about the price in the US ?

I have heard it today with Puccini+Clock & the 312 on Avalon Ascendants...
difficult to say something as I couln't compare it to the Capri and as these loudspeakers are limited ... but as usual beautfully build! ... it seems to be the exact replica of the upper part of the Criterion

but once again here in Europe the price jumps: 16'500 $
