| Class-D amps - a different re view No I am not from Denmark. Nielsens doctorate is available on internet. I own Rowland 102. At first sound was a little "lean" and sharp but over time it mellowed. It needs a little more "chestiness" (lower midrange) - improved after switching speak... | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view If Martin Collums does not like the sound of switching amps that's his right, but his 17 points are garbage. He thinks that switching amps are digital and have limited resolution (like in 60's). He claims that switching amps have "fragile output d... | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view Guidocorona - Hi-Fi critic is wrong on all 17 points he presents. Class D produces only about 1% of the carrier (usually 0.5MHz) on the speaker and practically no switching noise (zobel network). My Rowland 102 is directly under TV - no problem. A... | |
| Benchmark to amp direct question? Signal path inside is identical with or without volume control. In one case front volume pot is active and in the other trimpots are engaged instead. Additional components like preamp or extra set of cables cannot make it sound better but often ad... | |
| anyone here experience with Jeff Rowland Model 102 To be frank I did not listen to any of the components I currently have or others. I read tons of reviews and user opinions instead. I decided that each component is dependand on the others and listening to only one is not useful. I started picking... | |
| anyone here experience with Jeff Rowland Model 102 I am using Benchmark DAC1 (has only digital inputs and built in volume control) with 0.5m AQ King Cobra XLR. Drive Paradigm Studio 60v2 (with improved Xovers)using 6' Acoustic Zen Satori Shotgun. Paradigms are the weakest link now. "Digital" amps ... | |
| anyone here experience with Jeff Rowland Model 102 I mentioned S300 only because there are no reviews of the Rowland's 102 and Bel Canto S300 has at least two. I wonder if Rowland made any changes to factory modules since it normally voids B&O warranty. B&O does not sell them to public and... | |
| anyone here experience with Jeff Rowland Model 102 Yes. It is Jeff Rowland Model 102 (2x100W@8Ohm, 2x200W@4Ohm). I bought it few months ago. Each amplifier board inside has its own compartment and has switching power supply built in - pretty much like two monoblocks with the common power cord. It ... | |
| anyone here experience with Jeff Rowland Model 102 I have one for a while - one of the first built. It uses the same Bang and Olufsen modules (200ASC) as Bel Canto's S300 and M300. S300 is rated 300W at 4 Ohm because it is measured at 10% distortion. The module is identical. One of the S300 proble... |
