Jeff Rowland Concentra VS Krell KAV300i???????

I own both. There is no comparison whatsoever. In fact I can't conceive of anyone being confused on this issue if viewing them side by side. The Rowland is an engineering marvel while the Krell looks like another piece of mass produced crap. Soundwise they have as much in common as Quad and Klipsch.
On the used market a Concentra II will cost you about 4 times as much as a KAV 300i, so the comparison seems ludicrous in that context and the performance disparity seems justifiable.
If you can buy the Rowland, don't hesitate.

All the more reason to check out the Passion. I liked it better than the Concentra. Also, marvelously built, with a world class remote. Let your tympanics guide you to nirvana. You won't be sorry with the Concentra or the Passion. But, I do agree, the Krell is just not happening. Couldn't go one round with either of these babies. FWIW. peace, warren

Hey, it's been a year. Give us an update. Don't be ashamed if you bought the Krell.

I wouldn't match Rowland with SF. Krell's a better match. In fact, Franco uses Krell monos...

Keith, I think we're talking Krell's integrated. At least I thought that was the deal. Mono blocks? Apples and oranges.
