Why is there so much Rowland gear for sale?

Asa,
Don't be fooled by my misanthropic diatribes. I'm a believer in the pendulum theory and feel strongly that we'll recover from our greed cycle. People are stupid in their low level reflexes, what with tying yellow ribbons for Buffoon 1 and berating the French for their sensible position versus Buffoon 2, but insofar as they blow in the wind, they will be blown back to sanity. Unless, of course, we are all blown to kingdom come.
We are in YIN times and for that reason our focus is outward and superficial but Buffoon 2 is unwittingly reversing this trend by providing us with a virtual certainty of YANG times in the near future. When our belts tighten sufficiently, we will again concern ourselves with substance.
The future, while superficially bleak, holds much promise as gutcheck time draws nigh.

Tater, honey,
I hold little hope for you as a result of reading your petulant anti-Rowland rantings. You can't or won't spell the man's name correctly and you have not as yet betrayed any knowledge upon which you might reject his fine amplifiers.
If you trouble yourself to type JRDG into Google ou will find his website. From there you select "products" and from there select the Concentra II. There is a tech talk section there which will provide you with many reasons to admire his innovative spirit and clever designs.
If ever you purchase a new Rowland product, the experience of opening the box and acquainting yourself with the sophistication and gracious goodwill of the people who built and packaged it just for you is delightful beyond ready description. If ever you have been attended to by the more elegant of the servant trade, then you have a hint of the feeling Rowland conveys.
Soundwise, it cannot be faulted. I will concede that there are amplifiers whose characteristics better convey the sound effects of overproduced, unintelligible commercial recordings but in my vast experience I have yet to hear any solid state device that can do better justice to the essence of real music performed on acoustic instruments.
So, Tater, please do yourself a favor by noting the correct spelling and reading about the Concentra II. If you are still in the mood to lock horns on this topic at that time perhaps you will have some.

Jond,
Your request that I omit the Dead from this thread is fair and reasonable and I will honor it since I believe the Grateful Dead, like other religions should be a "don't ask, don't tell" sort of thing.
What's your theory about the equipment glut?

Hey Macrojack,I looked up the Rowland website Am I supposed
to be impressed.If you like shiny boxes I could make you
some at a considerable lower price.Let me know what size
you want and I will make them for you!

For an extra fee I could even have them engraved JRDG!

And, Taters, the SPECIFIC Rowland amps you have heard in your system and how they came up short compared to specific other brands models are...?
