Model 201 Mono Amplifier

An extraordinary journey into the undiscovered country of audio excellence, the Model 201 announces a new order in amplifier design. This amazing amplifier offers an unprecedented alliance between power and efficiency in a small yet elegantly engineered package. Don’t be fooled by its surprisingly compact size - the Model 201 Mono Amplifier from Jeff Rowland Design Group is an amplifier capable of prodigious displays of power and performance. Featuring state-of-the-art power conversion, the Model 201 brings a quiet revolution to music and film score and marks the first true expression of amplifier technology free of the limitations of traditional amplifier design.

The Model 201 offers an innovative solution to one of the most stubborn conflicts in audio design: to build an amplifier with the power and presence to recreate all of the subtlety of the world’s great recordings without the troubling by-products of conventional design such as excessive power consumption, massive size, questionable reliability and objectionable heat. With its patented ICEPOWER® power conversion technology, the Model 201 solves each of these dilemmas. The Model 201 combines incredible power and composure with a cool, quiet efficiency never before realized in the art of amplification.

Ideally sized, light-weight, and perfect for multi-channel use, the Model 201 offers maximum system flexibility for use in audio-video applications. A striking solid billet aluminum chassis provides the Model 201 a stable, non-resonant platform that is completely EMI and RF shielded. Balanced inputs and custom wheel lock binding posts complete an exterior that practices what the Model 201 preaches: no compromise in appearance or performance.
