The Continuum Integrated Amplifier

The Continuum Integrated amplifier represents JRDG's latest thoughts addressing sonic purity, advancements in circuit technology, and ergonomic design. 

As typical for JRDG products, the entire chassis of the Continuum is milled from a solid, massive block of 6061 aluminum to provide a vibration-free and EMI resistant enclosure for sensitive audio circuitry. 

Dual line-level outputs (balanced and unbalanced), balanced and unbalanced inputs, and preamp bypass inputs allow unprecedented compatibility with virtually any A/V component in both stereo and multi-channel installations.

A dual rate volume control allows precision level adjustments over nearly a 100 dB range. The volume control incorporates a permanently noiseless optical encoder that will always maintain its tactile feel, accuracy, and channel balance at all settings. 

Optional high quality internal phono preamp modules are available. 

As in the flagship 300 series, the Continuum 500 incorporates Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuitry that provides a near linear transfer of energy from power line to speaker outputs, resulting in unprecedented control of the loudspeaker/amplifier interface. 

As with all JRDG products, the Continuum Integrated Amplifier redefines the state of the art of its product category.

 


The Criterion Preamplifier

 

On very rare occasions, one person's vision encompassing a life's experience and creativity will merge and come to fruition in a work of art unequalled among peers. Jeff Rowland proudly presents his Criterion Preamplifer. 

The Criterion incorporates the most tried and proven concepts trailblazed by JRDG over the 25+ years of successfully developing the finest audio products available: battery power that provides the cleanest possible power source and isolation from the power grid, balanced circuitry, transformer coupling and much more. Additionally new ideas resulting in the further elimination of haze-inducing vibration are included in this no-holds-barred design. 

Additional details are forthcoming, but words alone cannot adequately describe the sonic excellence of this unique product. It must be heard to comprehend this outstanding achievement.

The Model 102 - stereo amplifier

At Jeff Rowland Design Group, truly great audio has been reduced to this: The astonishingly powerful and incredibly efficient Model 102 stereo amplifier, definitive proof that good things can come in small sizes.

Utilizing the same ICEpower™ patented power conversion technology that has revolutionized modern amplifier design, the Model 102 packs a true 100 watt wallop in a tiny 3x13x7 inch machined solid aluminum housing virtually immune to resonance.

The newest member of the JRDG family of fine audio components, the 102 is the product of an obsessive quest to perform one of modern electronics' most difficult balancing acts - the creation of clean, dynamic power without the
unwanted and, now unwarranted, byproducts of excessive heat and mass.

The Model 102 achieves this goal by the innovative application of impressive new developments in power supply and power output stage design. This 10-pound marvel features a balanced input/output topology combined with true
dual-mono power supplies to deliver handsomely on the promise inherent in its elegant appearance.

Pound for pound, the Model 102 is simply an amplifier without peer, producing an entrancing and satisfying musical experience far out of proportion to its dimensions... and at a price that redefines value.

The JRDG Model 102, size one up and discover the true state of audio excellence, from the Jeff Rowland Design Group.

Model 501 Mono Amplifiers


 

The 300 Series
Welcome aboard the flagships of Jeff Rowland Design Group's fleet of premium quality amplifiers, the 300 Series. Prepare to be transported into a dimension of reproduced reality that is uncompromising and unrivaled in the world of high-end audio.
The multiple channel configurations of the 300 series allow them to be used as the cornerstone of an ultra-high-end audio system or the finest of home theater systems. With output powers beginning at 250 watts per channel, the 300 series amplifiers are able to drive any loudspeaker with the control and finesse required to bring the greatest dynamics and subtlest details to life. 

To add to their versatility, the 300 series has employed new power supply technology. The 300 Series power supply incorporates active power factor correction circuitry that assures full utilization of the electrical system. The power supply also offers exceptional immunity from all sources of noise and voltage variations. Removing these last layers of noise allows you to hear exactly what the artist intended. Jeff Rowland Design Group has made the amps more compact, electrically efficient, and cooler-running than their predecessors, and thus more conducive to enclosed custom installation applications. The 300 Series' energy efficiency approaches eighty-five percent, which is up to ten times the operating efficiency of conventional amplifiers. By greatly reducing unwanted heat, the amplifiers do not impose any restrictions upon their physical placement. 

 

Model 312 Stereo Amplifier 

Innovative ICEPOWER™ power conversion technology inspired the development of the 300 Series. These amplifiers represent the top of the line statement in amplifier design that effectively restates the traditional relationship between power and efficiency. They also represent Jeff Rowland Design Group's on-going efforts to remove the boundaries between reproduction and reality.

 

 

The Model 201 Mono Amps
A new amplifier design, like all other creative pursuits, borrows
  lessons learned from previous successes. 

 

The Model 201 is the direct beneficiary of the knowledge gleaned from the development of the 300 Series. While the 300 Series represents our no-holds-barred utilization of these new concepts to achieve the pinnacle of audio reproduction, the Model 201 exploits those lessons learned to create a product that extracts the full capabilities of these new technologies, yet accomplishes this feat in an extremely efficient, ecologically-sensitive, low-cost package.
