Jeff Rowland 2 or Classe 25 for Avalon Eclipse
Hi Rrog, I am always interested in Rowland lore, and furthering my theoretical knowledge of those Rowland amps that I have not had the fortune of experiencing in my own system. However, if you were specifically asking if I am considering the acqui...

Well Rrog, you expressed your personal findings about two classic Rowland musical battlewagons, and I must thank you for sharing your experiences and opinions.If you had had the opportunity of operating the two devices in identical contexts, I mig...

Hi Rrog, thank you for your insight! Guido 
Jeff Rowland Criterion vs Soulution 720
Arnie brings up a valid point, as he has direct experience with driving Magico speakers. Conversely, I base my own suggestion on personal 15 years of experience with various Rowland amps, including the M725, which has been favorably reviewed by Ro... 
Jeff Rowland Criterion vs Soulution 720
Hi Grayling, Rowland has a new stereo flagship amp, called Model 825, which fits your $30K budget. M825 is a two chassis SS amp with a total weight of $160. This means that the power supply is in a separate chassis. Power is 400W into 8 Ohms and 7...

Hi Grayling, what is your budget for a replacement of the Rowland M302? Depending on your budget, I have a few ideas that are consistent with the power of M302 and with the kind of sound that I hope to get from an amplifier. Let me know! Guido

Hi Steinedm2, were you also able to listen to the system powered by Mola-Mola? How would you characterize its overall sound compared with the two systems powered by Merrill Veritas? 
Jeff Rowland 2 or Classe 25 for Avalon Eclipse
Well yes, I would agree with you Rrog.... And that is why I am comfortable to some extent discussing sonic differences among M7, M201, M501, Continuum 500, M302, M312, M301, M625 (original iteration), and M725... Because I have head the opportunit...

Yes Rrog, comparisons between devices are more reliable if independent variables are minimized. Hence my question about running M2 and M5 in the same systems.

What is the current home page for Tube Audio Design? The link on Audiogon's industry directory appears to be invalid.G.

USpac, for reasonably priced wire products, I have enjoyed very much the Furutech Evolution 2 series. See the review that I have written for Positive Feedback:http://positive-feedback.com/Issue45/furutech.htm

Hi Noble100, here are some ansers...1. I know of 3 manufacturers this far who have openly revealed to have developed NC1200 amps: Mola-Mola, Acoustic Imagery, and Merrill. While I generally opt for the word "prefer" rather than "best" because diff...

Thank you Rrog, have you exercised M2 and M5 in the same system? And what did the two systems consist of?G. 
Naim or Jeff Rowland?
Miami, for sake of completeness, Rowland is expected to release this month a new integrated amp to be called Continuum Series 2.... It is essentially the successor of... the successor of... the original Concerto integrated that you are looking at....
