No-one talks about Rowlands anymore


It's Pass all over the place. Is Rowland going down big time or terribly and expensively up?

Thank you so much Mike, you made my day!


Please post here the URL of your M535 youtube when you post it.


I have owned two class D amps from Rowland.... The M312 stereo, which sported ICEpower 10000ASP modules, and since 2013 the M925 monoblocks, where the output stage contains NCore NC1200 modules... M312 was wonderful, while M925 are totally staggering.


I have not heard the bridgeable M535 yet.... But I have heard about it.... Reports are that it is one more Rowland Homerun.... Stunning for its $5900 pricepoint per chassis.


Saluti, Guido


, but

Buonasera Guido !, I will be posting it to my youtube channel. Just search for "OCD Hi-Fi Guy" and youll see a crazy looking guy with goggles on. Welcome to my squirrel cage. I take you guys with as I completely bug out on getting everything "perfect". I share things like how to make certain mods, or what it looks like to cut the end off a $6K audiophile power cord with a band saw, i do DAC shootouts where you can actually hear the differences over the internet and through your phone (if its a new-ish smartphone) I will be posting there when Im done. Since I am biamped, I will try 535 for Low Freq as well as highs and see how she fares..Are you here in USA or Italy, or ?  

Ciao,

Mikele

Buon giorno Mike, I left Italy some 40 years ago, and live on the US East Coast.


I am very much looking forward to enjoying listening to your upcoming  test of the Rowland M535 amps in bridged mode.


Meantime, so that other followers of this thread have a better idea of what you and I are talking about, here is a temporary link to M535 features and specs from my Dropbox. I will remove the file as soon as JeffRowlandGroup.com posts an official M535 page:

Saluti e buone cose, Guido


Can anyone get into some details on the type of Class D implementation for the Daemon and/or M535 mono block. Are they NCore? Anyone compare the sound quality of either to the 825 Stereo Amp?


Great co wonderful sounding great service.So what turkeys don't talk about it!!
