Here are some questions for you: budget? input impedance of your amp? your musical/sonic preferences? SS or tubes? 
Let's hear about Elrods new Silver or Gold cables

Extended power on for Pass Labs XA.5 amplifiers

What kind of 'subliminal noise' has been dampened? Guido 
Let's hear about Elrods new Silver or Gold cables

what is the theory behind maple stands and racks?

Plinius vs Jeff Rowland
Concentra and Concerto are older JRDG integrated amps. The current integrated Rowland flagship is the Continuum 500. It would be interesting to compare it to the corresponding latest Plinius integrated offerings. 
Plinius vs Jeff Rowland
