Who tried Class D only to return to S/S or Tube
I've owned Densen B-350 Class A mono-amps, Classe Audio (Class AB), Parasound A21(Class AB), Peachtree Audio(Class D), Jeff Rowland M525(Class D) and have tried the Bryston 4bsst2 (Class AB). I currently own the Jeff Rowland Class D Continuum S2 a... 
B&W 'New' 800 Series
I've read many of Bo1972s post and have concluded that he repeats the same thing over and over and at the same time finds ways to contradict himself. He talks about how great his components are, but concedes that he uses room correction to get the... 
Review: Merrill Audio Taranis Amplifier
Thanks for the information. I actually love my CS2, but I'm being a stupid audiophile. I thought about going to the 625 S2, but I won't do the change until I can compare the two. One dealer said there is a big difference between the two and anothe...

In particular I'm talking about the VERITAS Monoblock Power Amplifiers. 
Review: Merrill Audio Taranis Amplifier
How does Merrill compare to Jeff Rowland? I'm still trying to decide if I should go from my Continuum S2 Integrated to the JR 625 S2. The decision would be easier if I could hear the JR 625 S2. Maybe Merrill is a least expensive upgrade from the J... 
Disappointing audition after great review
Zavato,When I went to RMAF in October, after listening for an extended period I was disappointed with the Focal Sopra 2s as well. It's a reminder that we hear differently and me not liking them doesn't invalidate someone else loving them. I've see...

Melbguy1,Thanks, I'm looking forward to receiving the JR 625 Mk2. After several hours of intense listening, I just didn't think the Raidho C 3.1s were worth the additional cost. I went from the JR 525 amp to the Continuum S2 integrated amp and the...

I listened to the Raidho C 3.1s today for a couple of hours. I decided to keep my Aerials and buy the Jeff Rowland 625 MKII.

I had a pair of Wilson Sophia 2s several years ago that cracked due to faulty glue. They are definitely made in the U.S...anything is possible no matter where a component is made. Several high-end companies manufacture their components outside of ...

Several months ago I listened to my friends Raidho C 3.1s and a couple things stood out compared to my system: more air around instruments, more space between instruments, and extremely good vocals. The speakers were driven by a Jeff Rowland 525(I...

Xti16,When I heard them at my friend's house they had more "air and separation". My room is 20' x 26' and it allows me to place the speakers 5-6' in the room. I'm looking forward to hearing them with my amplifier and will definitely provide commen...

Xti16,I've owned Wilsons, Revels, Audio Physics, DeVore, and one or two other speakers. I've seen the Raidho C3.1s and to my eyes they are well made. As a matter of fact my Aerial 7t's cabinets are made in China and they are beautiful to me. I rea...
