Jeff Rowland Model 8 or Plinius SA 103

Hi hiend2, I take advantage of you experience with the model 8 to ask you what is the musical difference between the model 8, 8T and 8Ti?

Thanks!

In theory the Model 8 should have more bass control of the 801 for the 400 watts into 4 ohms instead of the Plinius 220 watts.

Uh, you really think the speakers would be underpowered with 220Wpc @4 Ohms?  You should also know the 103 delivers 345Wpc into 2 Ohms.  If you think that’s not sufficient to control the 801’s woofers I think you’re kidding yourself.  At this level of power, just go by which amp gives you the sound characteristics you’re looking for. Just my $0.02 FWIW.

Thanks soix for the explanation, you are right, my observation about the model 8 with more control was just a guess.

hi

Best of luck, and let us know what you choose and how it works out if you could. 

I'll update you soon as I find a Sa103 or a model 8.

Thanks again.
