J.Rowland Is it possible to shut off the display

How difficult is the balance adjustment on the Concentra II to use? I ask because I am considering buying one, but adjusting balance from the listening chair is fairly important to me. Due to the placement of windows and televisions in the room as well, the listening chair is slightly off axis. I use the balance control to compensate. If it is that difficult to use, maybe the Concentra II is not for me.

Cheers,
John

I mentioned there was a chip that needed changed, I think I may be confusing this with a piece of BAT gear I once owned; on thinking on this more, it may just be a swith inside the unit.

John,

I believe it is just a push of a button on the remote. What the comments above alluded to, I believe, is that when you adjust the balance, there is nothing that shows where the current setting is, so to be sure you can reset it to center by using the mute button on the unit itself.

OK, Thanks to all!

I bought a JRDG Synergy IIi pre-amp about 4 months ago....and was wondering the same thing. How do I shut off the display ????.....so I called Jeff Rowland and could not for the life of me figure out what the hell the technician was saying. What I did hear was that the crystal in the display was good for 30 years !!! So, I'm 48 almost 49 so the hell with it, I'll be dead. The balance control is a whole new problem. But,what a great piece ( of equipment ) I have owned ''his'' stuff for close to 11 years now and have never looked back on anything else.
