Don't hear much of Rowland or Ayre as well. I've owned both and think there should be more "buz" about them. Quality products backed by quality companies.

Thanks for the feedback. The Jeff Rowland 625 S2 amplifier vs the Luxman M900u would be very interesting comparison to me since the m900u is the amp I have been targeting to get for my big rig system for some time. After reading Guido's feedback on a few sites regarding the Rowland's, I have started to think I should also have a listen to them before making a purchase decision. Another reason pulling me toward the Rowlands is that I am starting to become a believer in extremely quiet electronics, such as my Benchmark AHB2 amp. The Rowlands appear to follow this philosophy. Another brand that intrigued me for the same reason was Mola Mola with their pre, amp, and stand alone DAC.. |
No-one talks about Rowlands anymore I Think many have woken up with todays, million dollar chassis with 3rd party cheap (in comparison) Class-d modules inside. The $10K usd Continuum s2 http://www.theaudiobeat.com/equipment/pics/jeff_rowland_continuum_2_large_inside.jpg A third party Chinese sub plate amp, look closely at the amp module in both pics. http://www.marani-proaudio.com/resizer/resiz/public/LDA800-B.png/800x600.jpg http://www.marani-proaudio.com/resizer/resiz/public/LDA800-C.png/800x600.jpg And the Data sheet for that amp. http://www.marani-proaudio.com/public/LDA800%20CN.pdf Cheers George |
Continuum s2 use 3rd party Class-d modules from Pascal. http://www.pascal-audio.com/about-us.html http://www.pascal-audio.com/downloads/M-PRO2_Data_Sheet-2_4.pdf |
