Jeff Rowland's Continumm

The thing is ,man i tried and i really ,really wanted them to work out,but that just wasnt the case,i wish i could get a answer as to why so many like them,and the hi fi critic mag couldnt justify them at all.The bass wasnt any better then a solid state amp, the highs sucked.Ive heard bad from different types of amps also,but digital just has other stuff going on thats just not right.

I currently have a Rowland 102 amplifier which I think is rather good. I have previously owned Rowland 201s and Red Wine Audio Signature 30. It is possible certainly to prefer something else rather than any of these amplifiers but sanity precludes saying they sound unpleasant. Perhaps some decent speakers would help your situation.

Coffeey, which switching amps caused you discomfort?

Well Coffeey, if you're going to depend on reviewers to tell you what to listen to, then Rowland is probably not for you. OTOH, those that listen for themselves should step right up. Of course, our friend Guido is a reviewer. Maybe you should listen to him.

With ICEpower, just like Class A, B and AB, there are great designs and not-so-great. Don't lump them all together.
