+1 @DBallard601 and @TDimler...
See for example my Rowland Daemon Superintegrated review journal at:

Saluti, Guido
Two thoughts on JDRG: I can't speak to Rowland's current products, but heard a Coherence 1 Mk2 with the 1,3,5, and 7 in the same system. Obviously a LONG time ago, but it was just astonishingly good - beautiful to listen to. I lusted after a Coherence 1 Mk2 with either Model 3s or a Model 5. No idea if I'd be as impressed today, but it was an awesome experience. Second: I used to live within a quarter mile of their building (off of Fillmore in the Springs) in the early 1990s. Having a day off, I wandered over to the building just to say hello, and Jeff himself took me on a grand tour that lasted a couple of hours. It was an incredibly wonderful experience - and I'm still amazed that he would take that much time with a young Army lieutenant who was years away from being able to afford anything from his company. Hence, I hope he and the company are doing well, an always have my eye open for a C1Mk2/3 or 5 combo that I could afford . . . A true class act, at least in my experience. |
In case no one has seen this here’s a JR 125 opened up and shown what parts are used. Would love to hear Jeff talk about he designed and implemented it all together. https://youtu.be/25V7T5AxwE8 |
