Great thread....I have thrown the question out here on Audiogon in the past about the worth of adding a sub to a 2 channel system. Everyone here was great with informed responses, however, I agree with James 63's answer. A two channel system sound... 
Jeff Rowland 2 or Classe 25 for Avalon Eclipse
........it just came down to, I could not afford the ''newer'' Jeff Rowland equipment. I lost interest after the I bought the 501's when they came out and was not happy at all with them. Classe had come out with some new products that sounded grea... 
Jeff Rowland 2 or Classe 25 for Avalon Eclipse

Jeff Rowland 2 or Classe 25 for Avalon Eclipse
Good point Vicdamone - it was pre-emptive on my part but the fact that the tweeter can not be replaced was the main reason I sold my Eclipse. Otherwise, a great speaker and still one of Avalon's best 
Jeff Rowland 2 or Classe 25 for Avalon Eclipse
I owned the Avalon Eclipse's for over 10 years and drove them with both Rowland and Classe amps. The Avalon's are a 4 ohm speaker ( I'm pretty sure of that ) and the Eclipse's are a sealed enclosure speaker that was originally designed by Charles ...

.......boy I was mistaken as I have been listening to this box set the past few days and I didn't have most of his work as I thought I did. This really is good stuff......I always knew that he was one of the best and this sure shows why. However, ... 
The most overlooked album
.....yikes.....nope 
Skydog
.......I just bought it even though as I had mentioned I have pretty much all of his work. I did see where there is some previously un-released material. What I can see happening is price gouging once all copies have been sold.
