Opinions please - Rowland 625 S2 vs Luxman M900u ?


Any thoughts on this comparison?

I forgot to put some context around this; I’m somewhat of a bass freak and prefer the tactile impact 🆚 just hearing things. Not to say the m900 has no balls, and the pass all balls, but rather they meet somewhere along the continuum. The M900 has breathtaking, mind bending purity and extension from midrange on to top end...so much I often can’t believe that electronic “anything” is responsible for the sound I’m hearing. The Dynaudio Confidence 50 is in this relationship too so at least that aspect is phenomenal...but the Pass amps seem to render more of what resonates with me.
This thing we are a passionate part of, if I may, is so very personal, and that is why I believe there is no absolute sound; merely only preferences; in the end, and along the way.
IOW, our uniqueness IS the primary component on this quest.

thanks man. Today is a new day, lol; I'll probably be playing around with the M-900 and power cords more; Sometimes the stars align and the system sounds fabulous; Maybe since everyone is home the local power grid is nasty; It almost seems like the M-900 is current starved, so I wonder if I am suffering from a poor power factor.
The 1250VA transformer is massive and the power output stage is designed to deliver prodigious current into very low impedance, so from an electrical design perspective, on paper, the amp has 'the sauce'. My speaker cables are Transparent Audio Super Speaker Gen 5 and are somewhat known for lighting fast dynamics and great bass performance.
As a side note, my former Luxman 509X had zero issues pumping an energetic signal to my (then) Dynaudio Contour 60's;  That was a phenomenal configuration!

+1 on triode wire labs obsession. My system powered by 4 of them. They bested (in my system) such cables as shunyata sigma HC,cardas clear beyond, zen wave audio, wireworld platinum and some others. Great power cables. You should try them with luxman m-900 before going with different amplifier. I don't think you be able to find upper and mid level refinements and purity going with pass class a/b like 350.8 or 260.8. You have to step into pass xa-160.8 territory or even xs-150 to bit luxman 900 combo.
ok; that’s two solid recommendations for the Triode; I will give it a shot;
