| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Al,Yes, you are correct. I find that more power usually provides a sense of ease to the music. I can't say the JR 725's is significantly better, because I've never had it in my system. I would like to compare the two. I'm very, very happy with my ... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC rinpoche,My current amp is the JR 625 S2. I always like to preface my comments with, no absolutes in audio and one man's medicine is another's poison. To my ears the 625 S2 is simply outstanding. The midrange is produced with a realism that is h... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Rinpoche,If your question is technical(based on specifications), I submit Almarg would be best to answer. The Aeris DAC does have a volume control, but I think it sounds better with a preamp. You need to take what I'm saying with a grain of salt, ... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC I went from a Bricasti M1 DAC to an Aeris DAC. In my system the Aeris is more detailed without being bright, but I agree the M1 is very good. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC As a previous owner of Wilson Sophia 2s, 3s, and Sasha 1s, I submit much of the hatred of Wilson is due to "some extent" of Wilson owners. Many, but not all Wilson owners really exhibit the classic clique mentality(they really don't like the thoug... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC onhwy61,Please recommend a SS power amp in the $5-7K range | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Al,The gain can be adjusted on the front panel or via the remote. Rowland recommends that you adjust it so the two blue LED lights on the front panel are of equal brightness when used with a preamp. I have it about 4 clicks up from the recommended... | |
| Jeff Rowland Amplifiers I have all Jeff Rowland components: 625 S2 amp, Corus preamp, and Aeris DAC. I had nice equipment over the years, but to my ears Rowland is on another level, I understand different strokes, but I rarely hear Rowland being discussed. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC The gain on the Aeries DAC is adjustable. It clearly states how to adjust the volume when using it with a preamp. When I went from the Bricasti M1 DAC to the Aeris DAC I had too much gain, because I didn't read the owners manual. After adjusting t... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC I have all Jeff Rowland components(625 S2, Corus preamp, Aeris DAC) driving Monitor Audio PL500s. Despite what anyone says, there aren’t any absolutes in Audio; let your own ears decide.I had the Continuum S2 integrated amp and now the 625 S2. I s... | |
| Jeff Rowland Amplifiers whipsaw,thanks for your input. I do own his latest amp and I'm mystified as to why there is very little discussion regarding his amplifiers. | |
| What makes a good Hi Fi rack improve your system. So if you have StillPoints under all of your components you can further improve the sound with a better rack? | |
| Guidelines for buying used speakers (as in, are there any?) I agree with Coli...price to condition. Determine how much you want to spend and what a fair price is for the condition of the speakers, | |
| What makes an expensive speaker expensive jafant,I believe my previous(Aerial 7T) and current speakers(Monitor Audio PL500) were made in China. I submit both of them are very well made and offer outstanding value. | |
| What's the most overrated or overpriced piece of equipment you own, have owned or come by? Nothing, because everything I've ever purchased helped me get to where I am now. Happy! |
