Audio Physic Virgo Solid State Amps ?
I did have Virgo and they were superb with ARC VT-100MKII, I think that all AP speakers do benefit from tube amp. However at the end I did switch to Goldmund mimesis 28 and this took them to the new level. ciao

I did have them both and I did up grade to......guess what???? If you have any questions e-mail... Tommy ;-) 
Rowland 8ti or Krell FPB600c
Well ,certainly If you have Rowland 8Ti the Krell won't be an upgrade.If you have Rowland , I'd try Spectral and then I would go straight into Goldmund say Mimesis 28 Evolution or a big one Mimesis 29. You can e-mail me with any questions :-) 
Rowland 8 or 9 vs. model 10 or 12
Well if you gonna drive Extremas with Rowland take model 8 Ti perfect for this application.....model 12 is supposedly better than model 8 Ti but Extremas are not easy to drive and they like power. Good luck ;-)

I have used to own them and they were good with Jeff Rowland very good with Spectral and the best with Goldmund amp.....:-) 
Classe Omega vs. Krell FPB600
Heard them both on Avalon Opus and in my opinion Classe was more sweet,musical and richer sounding than Krell ...( I prefered Classe) you may like diffrently Good luck
