New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre
Guidocorona,yes, keep us posted. Looking forward to hearing your impressions of the Criterion pre. 
Burmester 069
A funny thing which struck me;in Norway, where I live, I can buy 3 new Burmester 069s with the reference power supply for the price of 1 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limeted with the V8 4,7L engine. In the US I think you get 2 such cars for the price of 1 ... 
Review: Jeff Rowland Continuum 500 Amplifier
Guidocorona,I wouldn't mind about damping factor. My 301s drive my speakers, Aerial 20T, with ease. Full control! They replaced Theta Citadel monos. The 301s are in comparison more dynamic, open and resolved. The Citadel had a warmer sound though,... 
Review: Jeff Rowland Continuum 500 Amplifier
I am currently using Burmester 011 preamp with the 301 monos, but I will soon upgrade to Burmester's new reference preamp (model 077). The Burmester add some warmth to the sound, but is also very dynamic and musical and I really like the combo. I ... 
Review: Jeff Rowland Continuum 500 Amplifier
I haven't been experimenting with PCs on the Continuum, but I have with other Jeff Rowland gear I have (301 and 501 monos) and it seems to me that Jeff gear is not so sensitive to PCs as most other eqiopment tend to be. I use WireWorld Gold Electr... 
Review: Jeff Rowland Continuum 500 Amplifier
I have had the Continuum 500 in my 2nd system for a couple of months now. It replaced an Accuphase E308. All i can say is wow! It was as I had washed the windows. Very revealing. This amp is definately better than a lot of more expensive separates... 
Burmester 069
Rob,Accuphase 800/801, Esoteric mod APL3.0 and Wadia 270/931/921. I am sorry but have not heard the latest dCS, only verdi/purcell/elgar. Among these I prefer the Accuphase rig. The others are too cold/analytical and less musical in my ears. But I... 
Burmester 069
Pkancel,you will not regret it. I moved up from Burmester 001 to 069 myself and as good as the 001 is, the 069 is a lot better. I chose this player over Accuphase, Esoteric, Wadia and dCS separates. The Burmester is simply more musical I think.I h... 
Best Digital Source That Money Can Buy?
I have a Burmester 069. I also have an Accuphase DP-700, but this is used for SACD only because the Burmester player is so much better for redbook. It is of course very expensive ($50k), but then without doubt the best redbook playback I have ever... 
Thiel CS7.2 vs Aerial 20T
I have no personal experience with Thiel, only Aerial, but what I can say is that after having upgraded speakers about every 6-8 months (!) I have now lived with Aerial 20T in 18 months. New record!! That is something, isn't it? And I have now pla... 
How good is Accuphase DP-700 SACD/CD Player
I have hade the DP-700 a couple of months. It is a very good player, and one of the best at its price point from my point of view. It replaced Cary 306 SACD which sounds like a cheap product in comparison. The Dp-700 is much more refined, has a pr... 
Which multichannel amp to buy
I would definately pick the Cary Cinema5 among the amps you have listed! Powerful and musical.
