    Re: JR 625 S2 to 725 S2

    Hello Richard,

    per the specs, M725 S2 monos are marginally more powerful than M625 S2 stereo, with M725 S2 generating a maximum of 330W/8 and 640W/4, while the M625 S2 is just a little below at...

    Re: Jeff Rowland 625 II

    All, some clarifications on the Rowland M625 S2 stereo amplifier....

    This amp runs in class A/B, not in class D.

    It does not contain an LM3886 module.

    M625 S2's power supply subsystem...
  5. Re: Jeff Rowland Daemon – Reviewing JRDG’s Superintegrated Statement Amplifier

    In preparation for the next evaluation phase, I took down the system today at the 1135 hours mark. Seems evolution tapered off between 950 and 1000 hours.
    I reconfigured Daemon as follows:

  6. Re: Rowland 625 S2 vs Luxman M900u? What’s better?

    Hmmm... Like Caspar Weinberger once said.... "I will neither confirm nor deny!" *Grins!*

  7. Re: Rowland 625 S2 vs Luxman M900u? What’s better?

    Hmm... An M725 monos successor? ... What a fascinating conjecture!

    Saluti, G.
  8. Re: Jeff Rowland Daemon – Reviewing JRDG’s Superintegrated Statement Amplifier

    All, on Friday, at about the 955 hours mark, while Daemon was playing the Post Horn movement of Mahler's 3rd Symphony, I realized that the critter was still making significant performance strides......
  9. Re: Rowland 625 S2 vs Luxman M900u? What’s better?

    Hello Joe, I will let you know about the upcoming Rowland product as soon as the pre-release fogger is lifted.

    Far as I know, the wait should not be too long :)

    Saluti, Guido (obsessive...
  10. Re: Rowland 625 S2 vs Luxman M900u? What’s better?

    Hmmm, I'm afraid that I might be more of a fan old gent than a fanboy by now *Rolls Eyes!*

    More seriously, over the years I have observed a few top flight SS power amplifier brands that IMO share...
  11. Re: Rowland 625 S2 vs Luxman M900u? What’s better?

    Hello XV-1, you are right, the Rowland M625 S2 sports only balanced inputs. However, the factory can provide RCA2XLR adapter which they have tested not to degrade the signal... And you would still...
  12. Re: Rowland 625 S2 vs Luxman M900u? What’s better?

    Hi Mep, now I understand... Sorry for the confusion.

    My Daemon thread is the actual review in the form of a progressive diary/journal...

    My original intention was to update the top post with...
  13. Re: Rowland 625 S2 vs Luxman M900u? What’s better?

    Hello MEP, my apologies for not responding to an earlier post of yours... The silence was not intentional.

    Unfortunately I am not a Rowland brand spokesperson. On the other hand, I freely confess...
  14. Re: Rowland 625 S2 vs Luxman M900u? What’s better?

    Worth pointing out that Rowland is rumored to have a new major product just around the corner. I will post details as soon as I receive them from the factory.

    Regards, G.
  15. Re: Jeff Rowland Daemon – Reviewing JRDG’s Superintegrated Statement Amplifier

    Daemon has crossed the 900 hours mark last midnight. I am now playing the fabulous performance of Mahler’s 3rd Symphony conducted by James Levine with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (RCA RCD2-1757). ...
  16. Re: Jeff Rowland Daemon – Reviewing JRDG’s Superintegrated Statement Amplifier

    Hi Pearse, I now understand what you mean.

    The audible positive delta that I am perceiving with Daemon in the system is largely a product of Daemon. The reason is that the current Cardas cable...
  17. Re: Jeff Rowland Daemon – Reviewing JRDG’s Superintegrated Statement Amplifier

    Hi Pearce, Daemon is a moving target because it is not even completely broken in yet, thus it would be totally pointless to make any system change until it has stabilized... Yes, there would be some...
  18. Re: Jeff Rowland Daemon – Reviewing JRDG’s Superintegrated Statement Amplifier

    Thank you Pearce for the suggestion. While there are several respected cable brands available, this review project is anchored on Cardas, the brand of cables which I have found to create the highest...
  19. Re: Jeff Rowland Daemon – Reviewing JRDG’s Superintegrated Statement Amplifier

    All,

    At about the 630 hours mark, I seemed to hear a very slight increase in harmonics pressure in the treble region, accompanied by a hardening of transients, perhaps caused by minor...
  20. Re: Jeff Rowland Daemon – Reviewing JRDG’s Superintegrated Statement Amplifier

    Hello UltraFast69, I was concerned that simplification would result in some performance compromise.... But I am starting to think that in Daemon's particular case, my concern might be unfounded.

    As promised, here are several Dropbox links to Daemon pics, photos kindly provided by Lucien Pichette at the Rowland factory:
