Hi folks,

today i had a session in a shop with my source, my speakers and Gryphon Diable 300. The detay was massive but overall the ambient was drier than macintosh valve sound. It coul be the room, so i will try at home next week.
Analog Domain integranted amp is another choice....has anybody listened with Martens?
Ok. What do you suggest instead? Integrated amp if us possible. Telling the truth i listened Gryphon Diablo and was very dry...
Thanks for the answers!

Another possible combination in my mind is to attack directly from the Klimax source to a good amp. VTL S200 Signature. It is in that range of price and it is pure valves! Have any of you experience Marten with Vtl?
In the end i trie at home Gryphon Diablo 300, Vitus Ri-100, Vtl, and Analog Domain wich was definitively superior in all aspects. It was so for me and the rest of people we were....i am a very happy man. Analog Domain ISIS is another league.
