I posted on 6/3/15 that I would explore a couple of speakers...10 days later I posted "After listening to many speakers I decided to keep the Aerial 7ts...not because they are perfect, but the cost to replace them is way more than I'm willing to s...

Bombaywalla,When I post a question, I'm looking for feedback from individuals that have firsthand knowledge of the components in question. Yes, anyone can have an opinion based on their experience; however if you not familiar with any of the compo...

Bombaywalla,I take all advice with a grain of salt. Ultimately my ears and wallet determines what I purchase.I called Jeff Rowland several times and talked to them regarding bridging the 525 to drive Aerial 7Ts. Per my conversation with them, the ... 
Jeff Rowland
Thanks for the advice and good conversation...decision has been made to purchase another 525 and use them bridged. I will provide some feedback within several weeks. 
Rockport Avior versus Ankaa
Just my opinion, don't own Aviors, but heard them several times...there are several speakers in their price range that some prefer over the Aviors. The best advice is to listen and let your own ears decide.

Guido,My digital and balanced interconnect cables are Wireworld Platinum Series 7. My powercord and speaker cables are Wireworld Silver Series 7. I've gone back and forth because I didn't think I would have the opportunity to compare everything. I...

Schacter,Please describe the differences you hear between the 525 and Continuum S2...is there a night and day difference? 
Jeff Rowland
Schacter,Thanks for the feedback, although I feel my 525 could be better with musical nuance/detail and I'm actually happy with the dynamics. Do you still have the Continuum S2 or do you have the Spectron Musician? If you have the Spectron, how do...

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."

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....

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...

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...

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.
