PreDAC for Rowland 201 monoblocks


I'm chasing ideas for a PreDAC for the stated monoblocks, driving some Sonus Faber Luito towers.

My budget is $5k. Currently I've shortlisted the Esoteric D-07x.

Anyone with PreDAC & JR 201 amp experience??

Hi JL35, I like very much Shunyata chords on Rowland gear, particularly the last two series: Z-tron and CX. Depending on your budget for a PC on Capri, you may want to have a look at the Python Z-tron or a used Python CX. They tend to yield great staging and imaging, with lots of harmonics and even frequency distribution, and absolutely no behavior oddities at the top or bottom. Guido
hey gents... this is meant to be about PreDac's to use with JR 201 and SF Luito towers.
Apologies Ziffle for temporarily derailing thread.... Now returning to the originally scheduled program. G.
Sorry Ziffle. The Capri is a wonderful pre, I have used one for three years based on Guido's suggestions.
ok gents thanks for the feedback, i've gone with an Esoteric D-07X to drive the JRDG 201 monoblocks directly with Sonus Faber Liuto Towers. Plan is to eventually grab a JRDG Capri preamp then run the D-07X as a DAC only instead of DacPre
