Jeff Rowland 2 or Classe 25 for Avalon Eclipse

It seems I should go ahead with JRDG model 2, but still want to hear another suggestions

Jeff Rowland model 2 with 100wpc, I think it has less power enough to drive Avalon Eclipse, right or wrong?

Thank you all fot support, All I need is the amp match well with my speakers, so pls tell me which one will you choose?

Is there any better amp that I should look for?

Garebear, thanks a lot for your post, they're so useful. Which JRDG model did you use with Eclipse? I ask so because my budget not enough for bigger JRDG, while I'm wondering about 75wpc of Model 2.

Another thing, can I use 2 JRDG model 2 as monoblock? I may buy one more if I have a chance in future.

Sorry Rrog, I have only Mcintosh C42 in my current system. The 1st step in my plan is buying new pow amp for Eclipse, then the 2nd step will be new pre amp.
After that, Mc2205, C42 and MCD201 must go.

Bo1972, frankly this is 1st time I heard the Eclipse has 1st & 2nd version. I just purchased them from:

http://app.audiogon.com/listings/full-range-avalon-eclipse-los-angeles-p-up-sale-only-eclipse-classic-2013-03-23-speakers-90015

So what is the differences and what version my speakers is?

All: Model 2 (75wpc) & model 5 (150wpc), which one better for my speakers?

Thanks a lot.

Any one here help me this question: Does the JRDG model 2 have a switch from stereo mode to mono mode? So it will double the power.

Thanks in advance

Back to my post, even I have just puchased Classe CA-2200 for my Avalon Eclipse, but still want to know if it was a good choice or not? (The amp is in shipping progress)

Anyone can advise me? Btw show me the name of best speaker cable under 1k for them,

Thanks all,

Garebear, Thanks a lot for your useful experiences, as I understand the Classe gear was better than some JRDG gear in your system, right? Can you let me know some detail comparisons?

Btw, what was your match speaker cables for them?

Thanks again,
