Should i go Boulder 1060 or Jeff Rowland 625

After the Dan D"Agostino Momentum monoblock amps, the two Jeff Rowland rooms with his 625 amp were my favorite solid state systems at CES. The sound was incredibly musical, with great depth and height of sound stage. I preferred the sound to the Boulder which is too lean sounding for my taste. Go with the Rowland, won't run hot either like the Pass does.

Rowland is a much better unit. They have great support if you should ever need it as well.

Boulder is a much better unit. They have great support but you will never need it.
That was helpful, I'm sure.

Horses for courses, but I think Boulder is among the most melifluous of SS amps, along with Burmester, darTZeel and the BEL 1001, sadly no longer in production.

But I think the 625 is the best balance for your preamp and speakers. I think it would provide a synergistic animation to your system.

Or you could choose to desiccate your speakers with Ayre MXRs and achieve that "lasers through Vaseline" effect to which so many achieve and to which so few aspire.

I know this doesn't address your question, but - if I were in your shoes - I would be thinking more about new speakers than either the Rowland or Boulder. Both great amps, but they're not cheap. For the same or slightly more money, I'd be wanting to get into potentially *much* better speakers. I'd be thinking Rockport, Tidal, etc. Even Merlin.

And there are big Soundlabs here for sale for only a little over $6k. And then I could add that Rowland to them or some great and powerful tube amp.
