| Jeff Rowland Wireless, I suspect you may be correct. . . I have herd reports that the JRDG 312 for example works very well with the Ariel 20Ts as they have some of the sonic characteristics of my Vienna mahlers. Other class D amps with low damping factors like... | |
| Jeff Rowland In that case I agree. . . it's going to be a few years before a few current switching designs become 'classic'. . . let's meet again in 10 years around drinks. . . we'll be able to share some accumulated wisdom by then. G. | |
| Jeff Rowland ". . . the implementation and sound of Class D I'm not so sure about."You are absolutely correct Wireless, you can't be sure about something that you have not experienced personally in depth, regardless of what reviewers say, including yours truly... | |
| Jeff Rowland Wireless, I fear Mr. marks may be a little behind the times. While it is true that some early and basic ICEpower implementations may have yield foreshortened or glassy treble, switching amp technology has made incredible strides in the last few ye... | |
| jeff rowland model one Rocky1313, I am not surprised that after 18 years your JRDG Model 1 is still going strong. My old JRDG Model 7Ms are about 20 years old. . . and the only thing I had to do to them once was to retouch the solder to the output transistors of one of ... | |
| Bass, more or less? For almost 20 years I belonged to the same school. . . ran Maggies 3As driven for at least half that time with the very hefty Rowland 7M monos. . . no, I did not need any deeper bass. . . I was perfectly happy with the silky mids of the Maggies, e... | |
| Sonic Frontier Line One with Class D Amp? Coffey, I have just received confirmation from JRDG that the 102 model is not meant for extreme loudspeaker designs that operate in the 2 Ohm impedance range. G. | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre Brazcole, I just returned downstairs after 1 hour listening to Inna Poroscina playing Dvorak on piano (Dvorak complete piano works on Brilliant Classics). . . your post makes me smile with delight. . . My TEAC X-01 Ltd coupled with JRDG gear bring... | |
| Daria Rabotkina Pianist Prima face, very impressiv playing on the uTube clip. What is her extant discography. Guido | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre Ah yes of course Clavil. . . I also do ONLY totally blind listening tests. . . won't do it any other way (grins!)Brazcole, I have used TEAC Esoteric X-01 Limited with my JRDG Capri and 312 with fantastic results. G. | |
| Sonic Frontier Line One with Class D Amp? I sspect Mike is correct. With an 85dB efficiency, the speakers will require fairly heft amps with perhaps 35Amps or 40Amps of current. Within class D amps, you need to look at devices built around the ICEpower 1000ASP module, which typically yiel... | |
| Jeff Rowland 501s and PC1s Yes Clavil, that is the 'pigtail', minus the 'recessive gene' that would make it coil like a tirebouchon. If manufacturers supplied high end cords with their component products, they would have to charge significantly higher prices while giving yo... | |
| How is your power bill? Thank you Puerto. I did not choose the JRDG 312 merely because of its efficiency. Rather, its sonic signature enchanted me, and its power efficiency convinced me. Similarly with the Capri, I prefer its sound over that of the ARC Ref 3. . . its mer... | |
| Sonic Frontier Line One with Class D Amp? Coffeey, let me know which speakers you have in mind, and their impedance/power handling characteristics. I will try to find out if the 102 can handle them. G. | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre Clavil, Internal wiring and external ones need not be the same. JRDG has used Cardas internal wires for many years. There is obviously no telling what internal wiring JRDG may adopt in future products. Personally I am extremely partial to Furutech... |
