Rowland vs Simaudio


I listen to jazz, R&B, vocals, some classical and pop. My speakers are the Magnepan 20R's. My room is 20x26x8.5

Looking for feedback on pre-amp and power-amp selections. There are no dealers within 200 miles of my home so, anyone who participates is greatly appreciated.

Simaudio P-5 vs Rowland Synergy IIi or Coherence II

Simaudio W-10 vs Rowland Model 12's

I don't want to jade anyone's response to the choices. That is why I'm not listing want I hope gain with either brand. Just looking for what others have found characteristic of these brands.

Hi:

I own a Coherence II. It is incredibly quiet, which draws out elements of the music that are not audible with lesser equipment.

I also own Rowland Model 6 mono amps (with batteries), which you have not asked about, so excuse me for volunteering this information. The word that comes to mind is transparency. Very see-through.

No experience with the Simaudio equipment.

Good luck
