Jeff Rowland 625 amp ... & 725


Some months ago I was already positively impressed when I had the opportunity to compare the 312 (class D) to the new 625 (class AB) in the same system ...

today my dealer told me that Jeff Rowland has sent him a new "platine" (board in English?) to install into the 625 and that it is sounding even better

this upgrade seems to be free !

I am very looking forward to hear it and wondering how will be sounding the 725

CES présentation of the 725 ... but also of something new ?

the PSU power storage unit

what is it exactly ?
Clavil,

I still have my Sonus Faber Concerto Domus hooked up.
I need to rearrange my listening room for more space around my Apogee Stages...

Check out this site for the Rowland gear:

Claude, I believe that the new PSU Power Unit may be an external supercapacitor-based power supply that can be applied to deliver DC to Corus, Aeris, and the upcoming Criterion replacement. I do not have any details from JRDG, but knowing a little about supercapacitors, it is likely that PSU may yield a great deal of transient authority to applicable devices.

And just in case you were asking.... No, you can't apply PSU to any power amps.... Just not enough current for that.

Google:

click on the "CES" link

click on "amplifiers"

scroll down & you'll find pictures of the 625, 725,
and PSU.

the PSU is as large as a good sized preamp.

it will probably be expensive!
Looks like JRDG has finally posted M725 mono amp specs at:

Purely from memory.... 330W at 8 Ohms, 640 at 4 Ohms... 1500W power supply with PFC, ceramic boards, class A/B... no overall feedback.
