Aavik U150 vs. Gryphon Diablo-300 vs. whatever ???

Thinking about this comparisons in relation to the Diablo 300 there is a question.

Is there anything out there in the $16K price range, being separates or integrates, that can beat the Diablo 300?

I knew I should have circled back to that room on Day-2 Ugh.  Oh well the U15 is where my interest lies since I do not need the phone stage.  So, at 80% of the U300 where in your mind would it rank against the available competition?

The pallet arrived the next day.

I was at RMAF and when I was there in Day-1 they were using the U150 and said that the "big boy" was on a lost an a pallet in transit.

I've had my U300 for just over 4 years now. When the U150 came out I initially thought is was 90+% of the U300. But I never did a side by side comparison. Then 2 years ago at Axpona on the last day that they were showcasing the U150 and someone bought it on the spot and took it away around noon. They had an U300 there just for show but used it when the U150 left. That's when I changed my mind and can say the U150 is closer to 80% of the U300. The U300 has a much richer more detailed sound.

That said Aavik showed their new U380 at RMAF. I wasn't there so I can't comment on it. Supposed to be much better than the U300

Something Vitus?
