| Jeff Rowland Zd542,I know your not bashing...my point is that I "try" to evaluate components in my system. I continue to say, "there are no absolutes in audio only preferences." | |
| Jeff Rowland Zd542,My JR 525 replaced a Parasound A21. Prior to purchasing the 525, I had in my system, a Bryston 4bsst2, Ayre integrated, and a JR 125. To my ears and in my system the, with the exception of the bass, the Jeff Rowland 125 was the most musical.... | |
| Jeff Rowland Zd542,I've owned several amps and listened to several in different systems over the years(Parasound, Bryston, Peachtree, Bel Labs, Classe, Levinson). To my ears Jeff Rowland is one of the few amps that produces a 3d image and I'm very satisfied wi... | |
| Jeff Rowland Onhwy61,I'm looking into speakers now. A few on my list are Joseph Audio Perspectives and Dynaudio C2s. | |
| Jeff Rowland Onhwy61,I have a clearly defined vision. I want better separation between instruments and better front to back placement of instruments.How to get there(what's my weakest link) and how much it's going to cost is the question? It may be time to inv... | |
| Jeff Rowland I don't know if I need a preamp. I'm looking for the next step forward. | |
| Jeff Rowland Zd542,Any suggestions on preamps I should listen to? I had a Parasound JC2 BP and to my ears it degraded the sound when compared to the PS Audio DSD I had at the time. The Bricasti M1 sounds much better direct than the DSD. | |
| Jeff Rowland Bill_k,Thanks for the response. There is no doubt in my mind that the 625 mk2 will be a significant upgrade, but for now it's more than I can spend. I'm currently using a Bricasti M1 direct to the 525. I just added a pair of SVS SB 13 Ultra subs a... | |
| Jeff Rowland I called Rowland and they suggested going from my 525 to the 625, which is out of my price range. I'm curious if anyone on Audiogon has done a direct comparison between the 525 with the Capri 2 preamp and the Continuum S2 Integrated amp? | |
| 2-Way Advice: Magico S1,YG Carmal,Diablo Utopia I've never listened to Joseph Audio Perspectives, but the dealer that sold me Aerial 7Ts swears by them. He claims the Perspectives are much better than the 7Ts across the entire audio spectrum. I came very close to selling my speakers, but decide... | |
| what speaker new or used for 5k? I had a Parasound A21 and replaced it with a Jeff Rowland 525 Class D amp. The 525 has much better front to back place within the soundstage and a wider/deeper soundstage. Instruments have the proper size and much better tonality compared to the A... | |
| PSAudio Direct Stream or Bryston BDA/BDP2? Wireworld Platinum 7. | |
| 2-Way Advice: Magico S1,YG Carmal,Diablo Utopia The more I read different threads, the more I realize with SPEAKERS, more than any other component, must be heard by the individual. I've listened to Rockport and although I can hear why some my like them, I don't agree with their assessment of ho... | |
| 2-Way Advice: Magico S1,YG Carmal,Diablo Utopia Bill_k,Are there any dealers in the US? What is their top speaker and how much does it cost? | |
| 2-Way Advice: Magico S1,YG Carmal,Diablo Utopia I understand, if I could afford Raidho, I would already have them. I heard the C3.1 and just love them. I've listened to many speakers, but they just sound so musical to my ears. |
