For Sale:
Jeff Rowland Criterion Pre-Amplifier - Rowland's ultimate pre-amp creation. The best pre-amp he ever made, to this day. Clean power provided by a battery powered sub-chassis. 2 unit design, world class pre-amp. And simply stunning in typical Rowland style.
Limited quantity produced. These units are serial #'s (PB-0006 and PC-0006). New batteries placed recently.
The Criterion is difficult to find and those who have them usually keep them forever. As such, please don't waste my time with lowballs or insulting offers. It took a $56K Burmester 077 Pre-amp to make me even think about selling my cherished Criterion; its THAT good. And if I can't get close to my asking price I'll keep it forever in a second system that will still be world class.
I have all of the original packing, paperwork, remote, external remote sensor, power umbilical, etc. 
This unit is in mint condition as you would expect. Other then a small bit of the airbrushed text above the power cord insert on the back panel being faded, you could not tell it did not come off the factory line yesterday.
And it's sound, as I said, is simply sublime. Anyone who thinks they can run a DAC direct to their amps hasn't heard this pre-amp in between the DAC and amplifier. Musical, engaging, accurate and refined. Not the older Rowland overly warm sound of old; just music and that lost in the moment sensation!
No refunds or returns. I will consider international shipping paid by wire, in advance, with a 1 week clearance time.  Shipping fees (national or international) covered by buyer - shipping via UPS Ground in US, UPS method of your choice internationally. All additional fees covered by buyer (Paypal, international fees, taxes, etc.) Paypal adds 3% local or 5% international.
Thanks for looking. 8/10 for age only. It is in excellent condition truthfully.
The unit is in mint condition with no discernible cosmetic flaws, scratches, dents, dings or blemishes of any kind. Please don't ask me if its cosmetically OK; it is exceptional. Also, it has NO SERVICE HISTORY. The first owner was the reviewer Guido Corona who handled it better then most people handle their children! I bought it from him, he is a good friend. I treated it equally well. It works flawlessly and always has.
