Jeff Rowland Sound

I just installed a pair of model 6 monoblocks driving a pair of usher rw729 monitors and then put them on my soundlab m2's;the results of which I never experienced with a solid state amp of this quality as I am a tube guy;my question basically is
how does his amps of today sound vs the model 6 and the other amps produced during their time?

Flg2001 and Kiwi 1282001, What pre-amps are/ were you using when you had the Rowlands in the system and now with the Gryphons? IMHO the preamp of choice has a very BIG influence on the sound of the amp, among of course many other things, like cables, room, load etc, etc.

Hi Dave!

I had the DM100 with the Elektra, as well with the Anthileon, for the S100 I had the Bel Canto - all Gryphon.

As for Rowland, I had the Consonance for the Model 1 and 2, and the Consumate for Model 8 - all JRDG.

Good point.

Hi Kiwi, if I recall correctly, you tried the JRDG Continuum 500 integrated, which yields a max power of 500W over 8 Ohms and a peak output current of 40A. Which Griffin integrated did you use, and what is its maximum power and current throughput?

Saluti, Guido

Audiofool, wow, you have something to say that is definitive everywhere. I am glad to see that Guido ignores you too.
