Jeff Rowland Amp Owners Please Help

I am thinking of auditioning the new JR 201 monos along with the model 10 stereo amp. Has anyone heard these or either amp? What do you think about their sonic characteristics? I will be driving Talon Ravne C spekaers and looking at the pictures from CES there are the Ravens being driven by the JR 201s.

Any help is appreciated.

Rowland is also introducing a Model 501, with twice the power of the 201 in abou the same box size. In additiona, they are introducing a new intergrated, the Concerto, with 201 amplification.

In the Rowland Room at CES, I tried to get a feel for the sound of these amps. Best I could discern was great speed and nimbleness. Beyond, that, I can't say. Missed the Talon room, sorry to say.

Why only balanced inputs? What do I do with my RCA only preamp?

Does using the RCA adapters degrade the sound?
