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.

The 300 Series

Announcing a new era in amplifier technology . . .

Model 302 Stereo Amplifier

When attempting to describe an achievement so spectacular as to be proclaimed "revolutionary", words often fail to convey the depth of that achievement.  Our listening persuades us that the Model 302 exposes the music to a greater degree than previously experienced - and yet the familiar Jeff Rowland sonic lineage is evident - a lineage steeped in constant efforts to develop products that honor the music.

Utilizing an extremely efficient output topology that maintains very precise control over all electrical parameters, the 300 Series amplifiers communicate the musical gestalt in startling fashion.  This level of sonic sophistication is made possible by concentrating on physical and electrical parameters that adversely affect the delicate musical waveform.

The elimination of deleterious resonance can only be achieved by addressing the physical structure of the amplifier, our most non-resonant to date. In addition to pioneering the use of balanced, transformer-coupled circuitry in audio amplifier design, the utilization of commercial-grade power-factor correction modules ensures that anomalies related to "dirty" power never influence the music signal.

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.

The Synergy II
preamplifier


specifications

In 1996, the Synergy Stereo Preamplifier was released, creating a benchmark upon which other preamplifiers were to be judged. Debuting with an extremely compact and non-resonant chassis design with a separate AC power supply, the preamplifier immediately won praise for its outstanding presentation of the naturally recreated musical event.

In 1998 the Synergy was upgraded to Series II status, adding the flexibility and sonic benefits afforded by audio transformer coupling and a second pair of preamp-level outputs. This change in circuitry improved the unit's capacity to interface with diverse associated equipment.

In December of 2000, a new amplification board utilizing modern "small geometry" surface-mount technology gleaned from the Coherence II Preamplifier and the Model 10, Model 12, and Model 112 Stereo Amplifiers was designed and released for the Synergy II, lowering noise and distortion, and shortening signal paths dramatically. The current Synergy IIi presents a musical presentation that fully complements the current series of JRDG amplifiers and showcases their benefits without intruding upon the original source signal. Improved transient response, speed, and dynamics, increased transparency and neutrality, and an elevated level of detail retrieval and resolution combine to bring the Synergy IIi to a performance level significantly higher than was thought possible – without an increase in cost. The Jeff Rowland Design Group Synergy Series IIi - embracing our long tradition of applying state-of-the-art technology in the name of music.

  

  

The Model 112 Stereo Amp
The Model 112's feature the two-tiered chassis design in which the power supply is separated from the amplifier circuitry. The Model 112's internal design effectively isolates sensitive signal circuitry from unwanted electromagnetic field contamination. A powerful toroidal power transformer gives the Model 112 the ability to handle even the most difficult loudspeaker loads with ease. The amplifier provides a full complement of balanced and single-ended inputs, a unique "wheel lock" binding post for secure loudspeaker cable connection and an on/off DC input jack for home theater applications.

All three of these amplifiers are encased in a machined solid aluminum billet chassis (an elegant testament to Jeff Rowland Design Group's well-earned reputation for superior artistic design) providing a completely non-resonant and RF/EMI shielded platform from with the musical presentation can begin.
