Dpac996, Thought about unsubscribing perhaps? G. 
Rowland JRDG 501 and Wilson Audio
Yeap, that's the problem of the 201s. . . they definitely lack 'lung' capacity for relatively large speakers like the Sophias or my Mahlers. I am not surprised that the NuForces did well on your Sophias. . . I have used the Nuforce Ref 9V2SE on my...

Hi Vikingboy, what did you like in the BC Ref 1000 over the Pass X350?

RGS92, what model of WaTT Puppies did you listen to? G.

Tusa, what JRDG class D amps did you try with your Sophia speakers, and what specific issues did you experience with them? 
SS Preamp with Balance Control
Kusina, the Capri has an output impedance of 80Ohms in balanced mode. The upcoming battery powered JRDG Criterion's output impedance in balanced mode will be even lower: 60Ohms. G.

Hi Keith, what was the problem you experienced with 201s? In fairness, the 201s sound quite a bit different from the 501s, particularly for headroom, authority, detail, ability to handle transients bass definition. 201s tend to get 'glassy' very q...

Hi Soundoc. The 501s are high current amps capable of driving even difficult loads. I can't see any problems them driving Wilson speakers. To maximize the musicality and low level detail of your 501 monos, you may want to add a pair of Jeff Rowlan...

Pure class A amplifiers = "slow" amplifiers?
Apologies Dave, I have no information on 'KAPAX' either. 
Pure class A amplifiers = "slow" amplifiers?
Thank you Dave I have no information on upcoming breakthroughs in time travel, nor on the ability of an amplifier to speed up the tempo of a musical performance. On the much more mundane topic of the application of time domain compression/expansio... 
Pure class A amplifiers = "slow" amplifiers?
Thank you Tom, sadly, you are correct. Performers often take obscene liberties with clearly specified time signatures or stylistic practices, resulting in totally bizarre tempos of performances and recordings.Rythmic signatures are a different mat... 
Pure class A amplifiers = "slow" amplifiers?
Oh wow, you guys mean that I can really change the time signature on a song by getting a different amp? I always thought that Bernstein takes Dvorak a bit too slowly. . . what amp should I select to speed up playing time by about 20%? 
Jeff Rowland Capri preamp

Jeff Rowland Capri preamp
I believe Capri MSRP may be $2595 in black and $2795 in silver. . . I will check tomorrow and will correct any error. Guido
