VTL 7.5 S3 vs Jeff Rowland Corus with PSU

Folkfreak is 100% correct:

"By the way if you buy from a VTL dealer then you should have no issues with service. I have owned their gear for over ten years and have lots of positive service experiences (all occasioned by decisions I made or problems I caused, these amps are very reliable). Buying used outside the dealer network may be another matter however ..."
I have owned VTL product for 19 years and the statement above is correct. I live a few hundred from them and when devices are service/upgraded, I deliver my device, always helpful and friendly. Luke, have given me a tour of there manufacturing facility, pretty cool. I've owned my VTL 450MKII amps for over 10 years and they have had on issues other then tube & fuse replacement.

I ALREADY have a JRDG Corus, but how much are Rowland dealers charging for the new Power Storage Unit that's supposed to be such a significant improvement? The only price I could find was 29,000 Euros for both the preamp AND the PSU together as a package.
Please advise! Thank you.

I believe the PSU sells for 7-8k separate but not sure exactly. I bought mine together 

$8200

i spent an enjoyable few hours yesterday with VTL pre and amp running Vandersteens ( 7 mk2) with a Brinkmann Etna front end...awesome sound and I have heard similar with top flight ARC. 

hopefully at the level you are at, local dealer can enable at home in your system demo...

have fun, enjoy the music...
