Jeff Rowland Pre-Amps: The Corus & The Capri
what sense does it makes to buys new preamp when 50% of the "better signal" will not be transmitted by your golden ref ??I dont agree with that comment and don't believe that cables are the main ingredient to define a system. They are an added fla... 
Pass XA Monoblock Amps
Hi Charles,I don't know what my listening levels are in db. I know that the volume control on my Capri pre-amp goes from 0-100. When I get in the zone of 65-75, the bias meters start moving and i can tell that the amp is going out of class a to a/... 
Pass XA Monoblock Amps
Peterayer,The needles on the amps move when i get to high volume levels . Thanks for your thoughts as well as Tom's thoughts. I know its hard to describe but I wonder what the Pass pre-amps bring to the match with the Pass amps as I have only hear... 
Jeff Rowland Pre-Amps: The Corus & The Capri
Ed,Have you heard the two sets of monoblocks ? Would it not also be room dependent as well as speaker dependent or is your view that regardless, there would not be much of a change. My speakers are 4 vs 8 with a sensitivity of 91. They have alot o... 
Jeff Rowland Pre-Amps: The Corus & The Capri
I keep coming back to whether I would effect more of an upgrade by upgrading from the Rowland Capri Pre-Amp to the Rowland Corus pre-amp or by going from the Pass XA60.5 Monoblock amps to the Pass XA100.5 Monoblocks. Its so difficult because I don... 
Jeff Rowland Pre-Amps: The Corus & The Capri
Inna,In my room, with my system, I really like the Cardas cables and can't see changing them. I have tried many other cables and always come back to Cardas.

Jeff Rowland Pre-Amps: The Corus & The Capri
Thanks for all the comments. I wish I had a dealer near me so I could go back and forth and hear the differences in my system between the Capri and the Corus. 
Jeff Rowland Pre-Amps: The Corus & The Capri
Hifimaniac,Thanks for the response. Have you heard the Capri? As a frame of reference, that is currently in my system and I wonder how much the Corus would effect the rest of the components I currently have. If you can, take a look at my system an...

Hi,I have the Pass XA60.5 Monoblocks also and I use the Jeff Rowland Capri Pre-Amp with them. I am very happy with the sound and the synergy between the Pass and Rowland gear.

Luxman-McIntosh CD Players
I always find these forums interesting as individuals put forth thoughts as absolutes. I hope that the audiophiles out there have the sense to realize that the synergy between the components and that includes the room will determine how a piece so... 
Luxman-McIntosh CD Players
Chashas1,It is so hard to have these conversations when we all have different rooms as well as electronics. The reason i made the post was that i was considering the MCD500 and the Luxman D-06. To say that the MCD500 is horrible is hard for me to ... 
Luxman-McIntosh CD Players
Does anyone own or have listened to the Luxman D-06 or Luxman D-05 CD Players? Thoughts on them and how they compare to other high end players? 
Tyler Acoustics my experience
Hi,I have the Woodmeres and I use Pass Amps and a Rowland Pre-Amp. I have also used Bel Canto with them. They have worked well with both of these amps. Stephen
