Rowland 625

Has anyone got their hands on the new Jeff Rowland 625. I know they've been displayed on shows like Rocky Mountain but I'm keen to have feedbsck how this new amps compare with previous models. I've seen the new website and they've been been advertising on magazine, looks solidly built like all Rowland amps!
I've got Rowland 501's with a pair of PC1 together with the Synergy IIi. My dealer has not got a confirmed date for delivery.

Dcstep I don't understand, you mean you have heard Avalon latest speakers (Avalon Time?) driven by the 302 and the 625 and that youcould compare ?

thanks

Claude, there was a typo in DCStep's post. Rowland suite initially featured M301 monos, not M302 stereo amp. His findings match my own. G.

Any thoughts on how the 625 compare to the Continuum 500?

How about the Corus compared to the Synergy IIi?
As it is, I'll have to save up a long time for the 625!
Bummer... Appreciate your thoughts. Tks!

Hey guys, I've been informed by my dealer that Rowland will have a new DAC in its lineup. Its called Aeris and there are already press statement and picture of the DAC available on the web. As with all Rowland products they look very good! Has anyone heard the DAC in action? The price I believe is USD9800 although I stand corrected on this.

Dtanclim, the price of $9800 for the Aeris DAC is correct. It was used in a few systems at CES, including the Rowland suite. I have not heard the device, so I can't comment about its sound or other performance parameters directly, but third party reports have been favorable.
