preamp for JEff Rowland 201 monoblocks

I just bought a set of 201's and I am looking for suggestions on preamps. They will be run on a set of old school JBL CF150's. I am hoping to keep this conversation in the solid state side as I currently have a Mcintosh C2300 to try that route on although that piece will stay on that system along with the Sonus Faber Cremona M.

How about a Rowland preamp? The Capri has gotten a lot of good reviews or an older Consummate or Coherence would be a great match with the 201's.

i ran analysis plus solo crystals with mine. sounded neutral, open and super transparent. ap interconnects seem to get out of the way. highly recommend anaylsis plus cables and interconnects -especially solo crystals.

also, with 201s -or 501s, i highly recommend the jrdg pc-1, http://is.gd/bTObhf. they make a huge difference. one pc-1 can power two 201s -though two will sound better. congrats. super amps.
