JEFF ROWLAND DESIGN GROUP
Corus Preamplifier 


Elegant main chassis milled from ingots of non-resonant 
aircraft-grade aluminum houses all delicate audio and control circuits. 
Ground-breaking AC power supply is segregated in its own handsome external milled aluminum unit.

Model 625 Stereo Amplifier 


Features a unique composite circuit architecture incorporating separate Class AB voltage 
and current gain blocks with no overall negative feedback.

 



Magnum Dynalab has Introduced 3 new models 
all based on the bigger brother, the MD309, but offering a new value price.
 


MD 307
- same chassis/parts and power rating as the MD309 Integrated Amplifier. 
Includes remote control and also available with the optional internal DAC as in the MD 309. 
What's different? --> the price. Removing the touch screen and parts that drive this 
has allowed Magnum to offer an more affordable choice.



MD 306
- also an integrated amp with less power (125 watts per channel) and this is based on the new style of the MD 307. 
Offering internal DAC option as well, and complete with remote.



MD 301
- basic level integrated amp (125 watts per channel) and cost effective step into a high quality integrated amp. 
No DAC option internally but you can add one of many available today. Remote included. 

All models are stocked in Black but Silver is an option at a slightly higher price.

"These new models are a great choice if you are looking for better audio but don't want or have the space for separate components. 
Since receiving the New Magnum Dynalab integrated amps and receivers I am amazing at the performance. 
This product will give a run to many products out there that call themselves Hi-End. 
I highly recommend you have a listen and I know you will agree."
- Angie

Better sound - improved reliability and longer service life in the power tubes.

 VSi60 45 watts (6650), 52 watts (KT120) 
VS115 115 watts(6550), 128watts(KT120) 
Tubes will be available shortly but in short supply at this time. So feel free to book a set soon. 
All current power amp/integrated shipments now come supplied with KT 120 power output tube of course affecting the price with slight increases. 
The cost $100 U.S. per tube.

Audio Research 40th Anniversary Pre Amp. 1970-2010. 

Exciting News, Audio Research turns 40 years old. Happy Birthday. 
To mark this event Audio Research has created the Reference Anniversary Pre Amp and sales will be limited to one year 2010. 
The Anniversary will be introduced at the Munich Show May 3rd. 
I expect it to be stunning yet true to the sonic signature that Audio Research has been true to for all these years.

If you indent to be part of owning the Reference Anniversary Preamplifier I would recommend booking yours soon.
