Plinius vs Jeff Rowland

Did somebody ever compare the Plinius integrated amps and Jeff Rowland integrated amps? Would Jeff Rowland be better overall?

The JR newer amp has more detail and a cooler/leaner, but more controlled presentation in comparison to Plinius. This will be very system dependent though. Maybe the Plinius is more forgiving as its warmth gives you the idea that your system sounds fine.

The current integrated Rowland flagship is the Continuum 500. It would be interesting to compare it to the corresponding latest Plinius integrated offerings.
