About the Model 2
The Jeff Rowland Design Group Model 2 is a high-end solid-state stereo power amplifier renowned for its fully balanced differential circuitry, current-feedback topology, and meticulous construction using machined aluminum alloy chassis with resonance control features like isolated toroidal transformers. Produced between 1994 and 1999, it offers refined, dynamic sound with wide bandwidth and low distortion. Optional battery power supply (BPS-2) enhances performance by reducing noise. It is no longer manufactured, but remains reliable with service available.
